Lost Boat
Jean-Paul VERNERET
1/6/2026

Verse 1
We spent the night just searching for the guilty ones,
Turning over the earth, emptying every drawer,
But your words of love have crumbled into dust and stones,
And I could no longer see a trace of hope anymore.

Bridge
But tonight your memory is all I have to keep,
A sail on the horizon I can never touch or hold.
Only silence remains, a spark that’s faint and deep,
And nights drifting endlessly in waters dark and cold.

Chorus
Everything that bound us is fading out of view,
Like a final glance that never found a way to “goodbye.”
And some horizons drift away, no path leads through,
Like a lost boat at sea that will never reach the sky.

Verse 2
You took the artists’ exit, left without a sound,
Letting flowers wither on the piano keys,
Their colors slowly faded as the seasons turned around,
Searching through the dust for what reason used to be.

Bridge
But tonight your memory is all I have to keep,
A sail on the horizon I can never touch or hold.
Only silence remains, a spark that’s faint and deep,
And nights drifting endlessly in waters dark and cold.

Chorus
Everything that bound us is fading out of view,
Like a final glance that never found a way to “goodbye.”
And some horizons drift away, no path leads through,
Like a lost boat at sea that will never reach the sky.
