Weve been sweethearts for so long
But now you say were thru
The love we shared is now a memory
I have built a ship of dreams
And planned them all for you
But now I guess what is to be, will be
Chorus:
Ill sail my ship alone
With all the dreams I own
Drifting out across the ocean blue
Yes, Ill sail my ship alone
Tho all the sails youve torn
And when it starts to sinkin
Ill blame you
Now, I gave a message to the wind
To take back home to you
Hoping you would hear my s-o-s
I thought that you would come back home
My darlin, if you knew
How much my achin heart was in distress
Well,
Repeat chorus
