Campfire Kansas

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Woke up at eight, started the fire Had a few drinks, we all felt inspired Jumped in the stream, our shoes and canteens The water was bitter cold Laid in the raft 'til it started moving The current just sang, its song was so soothing We stopped along the way On a beach in the sun on a beautiful day [Chorus] Our boats collide, we'd feel the breeze We'd stay afloat and make the most of everything [Verse 2] By noon, we had swung the ropes in the woods Missed all the danger, snakes and the floods Burnt by the rays and next to our legs The water, so bitter cold Lunch had been saved along with the lighters Wet cigarettes serve us as reminders Never trust a man with the food, change of clothes and a drink in his hand [Chorus] Our boats collide, we'd feel the breeze We'd stay afloat and make the most of everything The sun would set, the stars would shine The trees would shake, we'd all feel fine Let's take the moon and make it shine for everyone [Bridge] We laughed away the sunburn As we laughed away the day What we lost means nothing For the memories will stay [Verse 3] Caught the last bus with no time to linger Driver seemed to be missing a finger I turned and looked away to the bus, gravel road and a beautiful day [Chorus] Our boats collide, we'd feel the breeze We'd stay afloat and make the most of everything The sun would set, the stars would shine The trees would shake, we'd all feel fine Let's take the moon and make it shine for everyone Let's take the moon and make it shine for everyone
