[Verse 1]
Standing on the edge of a quay
Low lights flashing on the water for me
Fogging my mind darkens in my eyes
Silently streaming for a distant sound
Ripple river yellows
Rising for a breath of breeding and drowns
Stillness overcomes me in the night
Listen to the rising water moan

[Chorus]
I'm waiting
Waiting for the night boat, woah!
I'm waiting
Waiting for the night boat

[Verse 2]
Shudders all through me, shudder away
Echo me, echo me (Echo me...)
Am I alone, or is the river alive?
'Cause it echoes me, echoes me, echoes me

[Chorus]
I'm waiting
Waiting for the night boat, woah!
I'm waiting
Waiting for the night boat
[Instrumental break]

Waiting
Waiting for the night boat, woah!
I'm waiting
Waiting for the night boat
Waiting for the night boat, woah!
I'm waiting
Waiting for the night boat

[Outro]
I'm waiting for the night boat
