The Ship Of The Seasick Sailor |
| Running to the empty spaces |
| Of a love that we once shared |
| In between the lipstick traces |
| To a time that we once had |
| You mistook me for a man, that I once knew |
| You caught me unprepared |
| That’s why on the tide of an ocean of failure |
| An ocean of love in my heart |
| Bring me the ship of the seasick sailor |
| Bring me the keys of the sleeping jailor |
| Bring me the guns of the war torn soldier |
| Bury the flag slung over his shoulder |
| Maybe you could love me again |
| Maybe you could love me again |
| Then and only then |
| Because it hurts to be your friend |
| I’ve been to all the lonely places |
| We fought once to defend |
| I’d hate to be your enemy |
| Because it hurts to be your friend |
| You mistook me for a man, that I once knew |
| You caught me unprepared |
| That’s why on the tide of an ocean of failure |
| An ocean of love in my heart |
| Bring me the ship of the seasick sailor |
| Bring me the keys of the sleeping jailor |
| Bring me the guns of the war torn soldier |
| Bury the flag slung over his shoulder |
| Maybe you could love me again |
| Maybe you could love me again |
| Then and only then |
| Because it hurts to be your friend |
| The sea is calm |
| The door is locked |
| We’re safe from harm |
| The ship is docked |
| The battle’s over |
| The war is won |
| Screen fades to black |
| In a setting sun |
| Bring me the ship of the seasick sailor |
| Bring me the keys of the sleeping jailor |
| Bring me the guns of the war torn soldier |
| Bury the flag slung over his shoulder |
| Maybe you could love me again (All I can do is … Love) |
| Maybe you could love me again (All I can do is … Love) |
| Then and only then |
| Because it hurts to be your friend |
