Barges

Out of my window, looking in the night
I can see the barges' flickering lights
Silently flows the river to the sea
And the barges too flow silently.

Barges, I would like to go with you
I would like to sail the ocean blue
Barges, have you treasures in your hold?
Do you fight with pirates, brave and bold?


Out of my window, looking in the night
I can see the barges' flickering lights
Starboard shines green, and port is glowing red
I can see the barges far ahead.

Barges, I would...

How my heart longs to sail away with you
As you sail across the ocean blue.
But I must stay beside my window clear
As the barges sail away from here.

Barges, I would...



(Additional Verses)
Out of my window, looking in the night
I can see the barges' flickering lights
Taking their cargo out into the sea
How I wish that someday they'd take me.

Barges, I would ...

Out of my window, looking in the night
I can see the barges' flickering lights
Now is the time when I will soon be gone
And I'll sail with barges on and on.

Barges, I am going now with you
I am going to sail the ocean blue
Barges, we have treasures in our hold
As we fight with pirates brave and bold.

Out of my window, looking in the night, I can see barges and their flickering lights.
