| First time I saw you, I was drunk and broken hearted
|
| You were only 18, I was pushing 23
|
| Your blue eyes like a lighthouse
|
| on that dark de-serrated shore
|
| And I am just a broken ship at sea
|
| So I grabbed your hand and we went outside walking
|
| There was cheap beer on your breath and in your cup
|
| And that promenade in an empty parking lot
|
| Was the only slow dance I never fucked up
|
| You pull me down to the bottom of everything
|
| Pull me down, where I don’t feel a thing
|
| And I don’t know how far we’ll go
|
| But tonight I’ll stand with you
|
| Well the winter wind cut through me like the sails of tall ships sailing
|
| And I was run around at the mercy of your storm
|
| We were tangled up like Christmas lights
|
| on the hood of that white car
|
| I never found it easier to stay warm
|
| But like a broken home, our evening came crashing
|
| Crashing down like the body waves, it all came to an end
|
| I felt just useless as a bible in a hotel room
|
| I guess every man must answer for his sins
|
| You’re pulling me down to the bottom of everything
|
| You’re pulling me down where I don’t feel a thing
|
| And I don’t know how far we’ll go
|
| But tonight I’ll stand with you
|
| And your blue eyes like a lighthouse
|
| on that dark de-serrated shore
|
| And I am just a broken ship at sea
|
| I am just a broken ship at sea
|
| Oh Lord, I am just a broken ship at sea |
