Burning My Row Boat

[Verse 1]
I've started a fire in my old row boat
I wanna stay on shore with you
I’ve broken both of the oars into kindling wood
So I can't row away from you like I used to do

[Pre-Chorus]
Some days I know I belong right here
Some days, it's not big enough for both of us
Some days, there are beautiful ships that come into view

[Chorus]
But I’m burning my old row boat
I'm burning my old row boat
Oh, won't you please burn your row boat too?

[Verse 2]
You pretend not to notice when I say my "forever"s and "completely"s
Pretend not to hear me when I say my "I love you"s
You think that the first time I hear some siren singing sweetly
That I'll just row away from you like I used to do

[Pre-Chorus]
Some days I know I belong right here
Some days, it's not big enough for both of us
Some days, there are beautiful ships that come into view

[Chorus]
But I'm burning my old row boat
I'm burning my old row boat
Oh, won't you please burn your row boat too?

[Bridge]
I saw the painted paradise on a painted ocean
But it didn’t look very much at all like the place I have chosen
But that’s what makes Shangri-La Shangri-La
It's only good as a painted notion

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
But I’m burning my old row boat
I'm burning my old row boat
Oh, won't you please burn your row boat too?
