Nonchalant blues

I've had my share,
pain enough for today,
buttload of blue frustration.

Been stretching out for
a hand of help,
but your heart's in isolation.

And i know these shackles won't come off,
these lonely chains of distance eatin' me away,
until you see,
eye to eye with me,
an' reach out, your helping hand i need.

Little gal,
see this rocking boat?
It misses one paddle.

And if it don't
oh sorrow,  soon come back,
this rocky boat will struggle.

Going round and round, just there on the spot,
trying to grab its tail, blood running hot,
until you grab me,
shiver and moan,
this rocky boat won't ever move on.
