lyrics

I'll love you 'til the boat goes down
If we find an island and we run aground
I will meet you on the shore
And it will be just like before
I will love you 'til the island ain't no more

I will love you 'til we sink into the sea
If we wake up in Atlantis suddenly
I will meet you at the gate
I'll be waiting, don't be late
I will love you 'til Atlantis fades away

I will love you 'til the boat's capsized
Maybe we'll be washed to safety with the tides
Then I will meet you on dry land
We'll walk together hand in hand
I will love you 'til there's nowhere left to stand

I will love you when the boat goes down
I'll swim beside you and I'll hope we never drown
Maybe we'll just learn to fly
Then I'll meet you way up high
I will love you 'til there isn't any sky
