Love on the Rocks (Shipwrecked) [feat. Julia Courtney]
When you needed somebody, I held you
When you needed true love, how I loved you!
My wayward love upon the rocks, too good to be true
When it's like a dream, with clouds that cover me like the sun —
Oh, how lovely everything seemed —
An ocean of joy taken on the run!
Love on the rocks
Dashed up on the bitter fates
Another Love on the rocks
Why must I always make the same mistakes?
Leave it all behind, leave it all behind, leave it all behind
Do you mind if I try?
Wait for me outside or I'll cry
My wayward love upon the rocks —
Sailing ships line the docks along the bay
When you lost your directions, I made you look twice
With the power of suggestion, for the cost of advice!
It's a question of style and everything nice
When it's like a dream, with clouds that cover me like the sun —
Oh, how lonely everything seems —
An ocean of tears hanging on a rung!
Love on the rocks
Washed out on a bit of fate
Another Love on the rocks
Why must I always make the same mistakes?
Leave it all behind, leave it all behind, leave it all behind
Do you mind if I cry?
I can't deny my secret thoughts
You never stop to say goodbye —
Oh, my love, on the rocks before my eyes!
When you needed true love, how I loved you!
My wayward love upon the rocks, too good to be true
When it's like a dream, with clouds that cover me like the sun —
Oh, how lovely everything seemed —
An ocean of joy taken on the run!
Love on the rocks
Dashed up on the bitter fates
Another Love on the rocks
Why must I always make the same mistakes?
Leave it all behind, leave it all behind, leave it all behind
Do you mind if I try?
Wait for me outside or I'll cry
My wayward love upon the rocks —
Sailing ships line the docks along the bay
When you lost your directions, I made you look twice
With the power of suggestion, for the cost of advice!
It's a question of style and everything nice
When it's like a dream, with clouds that cover me like the sun —
Oh, how lonely everything seems —
An ocean of tears hanging on a rung!
Love on the rocks
Washed out on a bit of fate
Another Love on the rocks
Why must I always make the same mistakes?
Leave it all behind, leave it all behind, leave it all behind
Do you mind if I cry?
I can't deny my secret thoughts
You never stop to say goodbye —
Oh, my love, on the rocks before my eyes!
