## Lyrics
[verse]
We're so sorry, Uncle Rennie, for the noise we made
Rain kept falling down the roof while all the plans got laid
You were shouting something 'bout the weather and the tide
We were laughing at the thunder rolling far outside

[chorus]
Hands across the water, hands across the sky
Wave to Uncle Rennie as the ship goes by
Admiral of nothing but a paper boat and dream
Sailing through the kitchen on an old imagined stream

[verse]
Suddenly the kettle started whistling out of tune
Uncle Rennie's marching to a crooked kind of moon
Told us all to gather round the table for a toast
To the sailors and the wanderers we love the most

[chorus]
Hands across the water, hands across the sky
Wave to Uncle Rennie as the ship goes by
Admiral of nothing but a paper boat and dream
Sailing through the kitchen on an old imagined stream

[bridge]
Admiral, Admiral, take us out to sea
Even if the ocean's just a memory
We'll follow every crooked map you draw
And laugh until we can't recall the flaw

[chorus]
Hands across the water, hands across the sky
Wave to Uncle Rennie as the ship goes by
Admiral of nothing but a paper boat and dream
Sailing through the kitchen on an old imagined stream
