Boats against the Current
Eric Carmen



I know it's over, you know it's over
we're just going through the motions
but we're sailing separate oceans, worlds apart
and you know, it's breaking my heart

I was a dreamer, you were a dreamer
but perfection is consuming
and it seems we're only human afterall
and we've both been taking a fall

But tomorrow, we'll go a little bit faster
tomorrow, we're gonna find what we're after at last
Feelings that we left in the past
There's romance in the sunset
We're boats against the current to the end

Maybe we're older, maybe we're colder
So we disregard solutions
while we cling to our illusions once again
And we keep hangin' in
Seasons are changing, reasons are changing
but the story isn't ending
and I find myself pretending one more day
While the years keep slipping away
