Longer Boats (Out Front: Cat Stevens And Friends, Yorkshire Television, 7th September 1971) Songtext
von Cat Stevens

Longer boats are coming to win us
They′re coming to win us, they're coming to win us
Longer boats are coming to win us
Hold on to the shore
They′ll be taking the key from the door

Raise your mind up and look around
You may see them
Yes, they're looking down
On a lonely asteroid in a vacant void
Dying, but not destroyed


Longer boats are coming to win us
They're coming to win us, they′re coming to win us
Longer boats are coming to win us
Hold on to the shore
They′ll be taking the key from the door

Beloved people, I come to you in the name of all things good and beautiful
To remind you that now is the time to act upon what's best inside us all
Our destiny is one, let our hearts beat as one

Longer boats, longer boats, they′re coming to win us
Longer boats, (longer boats), they're coming to win us
(Hold on), hold on, hold on, on to the shore

Raise your mind up and look around
You may see them, everywhere you turn
Down below, up above
We got to fight (for peace and love)
Give ′em hell, give 'em hell for peace and love
