Steamboat

Well, I'm just a stranger, I'm only a walker I guess I am human, but sometimes I feel Like I'm only a ghost, like I'm only a wall And if you come around, honey, I'll probably just follow you home 'Cause it's all that I know how to do I was born by a body, I'll die by one too And places ain't nothing if it ain't got you And one day, I'ma be a steam boat, baby One day, I can be a freight train lady I'll roll down the river and the miles won't phase me Oh, I wish I was better at being alone Still, every night, I call you on the phone Oh, I wish I was more than my skin and my bones I've been arranging each of my movements And all of my gestures and trying to fool myself Into thinking that everything is small, that nothing has reason I woke up and cried, a convulsion of honesty brought me to life When I thought I was gone But I can't put a lie in the mouth of a song And one day, I'ma be a steam boat, baby One day, I can be a freight train lady I'll roll down the river and the miles won't phase me Oh, I wish I was better at being alone Still, every night I call you on the phone Oh, I wish I was more than my skin and my bone Oh, I wish I was more than my skin and my bone
