Lyrics
Out of my window, looking in the night I can see the barges’ flickering light, Silently flows the river to the sea And the Barges too float silently
Chorus 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 light
Starboard shines green and port is glowing red I can see them flickering far ahead
Chorus
How my heart longs to go away with you As I watch you sail the ocean blue But I must stand beside my window clear And watch you sail away from here
