Lyrics Rick Springfield

Rick Springfield

Our Ship's Sinking

If I’m the one who caused your shipwrecked life

Then hold my hand, right to the fire

And I’ll bear this cross of love

Enough for you, enough for me yeah

Even though the water’s all around, climbing higher

Though our ship’s sinking I'm rowing and I swear

I won’t give up and I won’t let go

So don’t start thinking you’re going anywhere

Cause I’m not ready to let you go

I booked a passage on a ship of fools

And I led the lamb right to the slaughter

We survived the storm somehow

I missed it then, I see it now and

It’s a wonder I’m not laying face down in the water

Though our ship’s sinking I'm rowing and I swear

I won’t give up and I won't let go

So don’t start thinking you’re going anywhere

Cause I’m not ready to let you go

Though our ship’s sinking, I’m sending out a prayer

And ten good reasons you can believe

So don't start thinking you’re going anywhere

Cause I’m not ready to let you leave

Bruised sky I can hear the thunder

These chains would have dragged me under

It’s a wonder I’m not laying face down in the water

Whoa, whoa, whoa

Though our ship’s sinking I'm rowing and I swear

I won’t give up and I won’t let go

So don’t start thinking you’re going anywhere

Cause I’m not ready to let you go

Though our ship’s sinking, I’m sending out a prayer

And ten good reasons you can believe

So just stop thinking you’re going anywhere

Cause I’m not ready to let you leave

(Our ship’s sinking) Whoa, whoa, whoa

(Though our ship's sinking) Whoa, whoa, whoa
