Before the Mast

As time goes by
You were the one
(The one)

As time goes by
I forget your touch
As time goes by
I forget what we was
There was times I thought
That you were the one
I carved out my heart
It was never enough

I had to let you go
I did what I could
I fought tooth and nail
Through a war zone of blood, and I'm tired
Tired, baby I'm tired, tired
Of being dragged through the mud, mud
Baby I'm done, done
I gave you my heart yeah, yeah!
I gave you my heart yeah, yeah!
I gave you my heart yeah, yeah!
And you ran me through the mud, mud (Ran me through the mud!)
Baby I'm done (Baby I'm done)
Ooh baby I'm done (Baby I'm done!)
Ooh baby I'm done (Ooh baby I'm)
Yeah, yeah

I tried to give you every chance in the book
But baby you lie
You rather play games
Tryna deceive my mind
So I leave you with your darkness
And I'm wishing you well
I belong to the ocean
Yeah the gutter I dwell (I dwell)
I'm backing to focusing on
Taking care of myself (To myself)
Getting to the money (Yeah, yeah!)
Is all I tell myself (I tell myself!)
Yeah, baby
I, belong
To the deep now (To the deep now)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I, belong
To the deep now
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (To the deep now)
Six feet, where I'm gon' creep now (Ooooh six feet)
I give it all up, no sleep now (Yeah, yeah, no sleep now)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby
Oooh, ooh, ooh my baby
I miss you so, but no more lady (No, no!)
I gotta carve that out (Carve it out)
I said no more baby (No, no!)
I carved it out (Carved it out!)
I left it on the shore (On the shore)
Unmarked, no Port (Unmarked, no Port)
Yeah no, no more (No, no!)
I be forced to close the door (Close the door, ooh ooh)
Baby, oooh - my baby
Yeah, lady
