Ship Lost at Sea

Hey!

Arms of the ocean reach out for you

Rusty pipes

Can't help calling for you, too

The brine is finer than wine

But be careful not to drink too much

'Cause there are remains

On the bottom of that cup

If you fear you've had enough

Of that salty stuff

I'm on the beach

Reading a book

Lost in a page

Lost for an age

I could be your bonfire

And you could be my ship out at sea

Look!

I'm not after your charity

And my dear, I don't want you pleased with yourself

What is that feeling of pride

When you throw your coin in a beggar's cap?

Selfless acts are quite selfish when you think about 'em like that

But I've been thinking of you

And how to improve

'Cause I'm in a fix

And your heart is tool

Help someone who's close

Could be me, right?

Who knows?

You could be my handout

And I'd be your good deed for the day

I want a puzzle I don't have to beat

A watch I don't have to wind

I really want to find your missing piece

And make it

Mine all mine all mine

So If you're hopeless and beat

Lower than your feet

Or up to your neck

Or down on your knees

In way too deep

And out of ideas

I can be your brainchild

If you promise to take care of me

I could be your bonfire

And you could be my ship out at sea

One more time!

I can be your boyfriend

And you can pretend not to know me!
