Pedro Canoero

Pedro the Canoeman
All your time has slipped away
On the old canoe
Slowly the river took it all away

Pedro the Canoeman
You haven't returned to the shore
You stayed in the canoe
Like a spirit without age and memory

Pedro the Canoeman, the water rocked you
Far from the shore when you fell asleep
Pedro the Canoeman
Heart of clay
On the canoe, your life slipped away

Pedro the Canoeman
Hope was drifting away
On the dawn-lit water
Your hope, Pedro, in the end
Had no shores

Pedro the Canoeman
The water rocked you
Far from the shore
When you fell asleep
Pedro the Canoeman
Heart of clay
On the canoe, your life slipped away

Pedro, Pedro
Your life slipped away
Pedro, Pedro
Your life slipped away
On the canoe, your life slipped away
