Woke  up at eight, started the fire
had  a few drinks, we all felt inspired
jumped  in the stream, our shoes and canteens
the  water was bitter cold
Laid  in the raft till it started moving
the  current just sang, the song was so soothing
we  stopped along the way
on  a beach in the sun, on a  beautiful day
 Our boats  collide,  we'd feel  the breeze
 We'd stay  afloat  and make  the most  of everything
By  noon we had swung the ropes in the woods
missed  all danger, snakes, and the floods
burnt  by the rays and next to our legs,
the  water so bitter cold
Lunch  had been saved along with the lighters
wet  cigarettes serve us as reminders
never  trust a man  with the food,  change of clothes, and a drink  in his hand
 Our boats  collide,  we'd feel  the breeze
 We'd stay  afloat  and make  the most  of everything
 The sun  would set,  the stars  would shine
 the trees  would shake,  we'd all  feel fine
 Let's take  the moon  and make  it shine  for everyone
We  laughed away the sunburn
as  we laughed away the day
What  we lost means nothing
for  the memories will stay...
Caught  the last bus with no time to linger
the  driver seemed to be missing a finger
I  turned and looked away  to the bus,  gravel road and a beautiful  day
 Our boats  collide,  we'd feel  the breeze
 We'd stay  afloat  and make  the most  of everything
 The sun  would set,  the stars  would shine
 the trees  would shake,  we'd all  feel fine
 Let's take  the moon  and make  it shine  for everyone
 Let's take  the moon  and make  it shine  for everyone
