Lyrics
LINES IN THE WATER
VERSE:
I STUMBLED ON TO MY OLD TACKLE BOX , WHILE I WAS CLEANING OUT THE GARAGE
I SAT ON THE FLOOR AND I OPENED IT UP, I'D FORGOTTEN I HAD ALL THAT STUFF
JUST FOR A MOMENT I WAS 10 YEARS OLD IN THAT FLAT BOTTOM BOAT WITH HIM
AND I'D GIVE ANYTHING IN THIS WHOLE WIDE WORLD JUST TO BE IN THAT BOAT AGAIN
CHORUS:
WITH OUR LINES IN THE WATER, THE WIND IN OUR FACE
THE SUN ON OUR BACKS, SITTING OUT ON THE LAKE
JUST ME AND MY DAD, WATCHING AND WATCHING THAT BOBBER
NEVER SAYING A WORD WITH OUR LINES.... IN THE WATER
VERSE 2:
NEXT THING I KNEW I WAS LOADING THE BOAT AND SLIPPING OUT TO THE LAKE
I MADE THE TURNS DOWN THAT DUSTY OLD ROAD, IT'D BEEN YEARS BUT I STILL FOUND MY WAY
TEARS FILLED MY EYES AND I PULLED TO A STOP AS THE MEMORIES CAME FLOODING IN
AND I COULD FEEL HIM THER LIKE IT WAS YESTERDAY, BESIDE ME IN THAT BOAT AGAIN
CHORUS:
WITH OUR LINES IN THE WATER, THE WIND IN OUR FACE
THE SUN ON OUR BACKS, SITTING OUT ON THE LAKE
JUST ME AND MY DAD, WATCHING AND WATCHING THAT BOBBER
NEVER SAYING A WORD WITH OUR LINES.... IN THE WATER
BRIDGE:
NOW I KNOW, THE LOVE HE NEVER SPOKE
WAS IN EVERTHING WE DID TOGETHER
THE MEMORIES THAT LIVE FOREVER
CHORUS X2
WITH OUR LINES IN THE WATER, THE WIND IN OUR FACE
THE SUN ON OUR BACKS, SITTING OUT ON THE LAKE
JUST ME AND MY DAD, WATCHING AND WATCHING THAT BOBBER
NEVER SAYING A WORD WITH OUR LINES.... IN THE WATER
