The Beautiful South - The Beautiful South: The BBC Sessions

I'll Sail This Ship Alone (BBC Session - Mark Goodier 10/6/89)

If, if you choose that we will always lose
Well then I'll sail this ship alone
And if, if you decide to give him another try
Well then I'll sail this ship alone

Well they said if I wrote the perfect love song
You would take me back
Well I wrote it but I lost it
And now will you take me back anyway, now

If, if you insist that this is for the best
Well then I'll sail this ship alone
And if, if you swear that you no longer care
Well then I'll sail this ship alone

I'll sail this ship alone
Between the charts and the treasure
I'll sail this ship alone
Between the pain and the pleasure
If you would rather go your way then go your way
I'll sail this ship alone

If, if you're afraid that I won't make the grade
Well, then I'll sail this ship alone
And if, if you agree to him instead of me
Well, then I'll sail this ship alone

Well they said if I wrote the perfect letter
That I would have a chance
Well I wrote it, and you burnt it
And now do I have a chance anyway now

If, if you swear that you no longer care
Well, then I'll sail this ship alone

I'll sail this ship alone
Between the pain and the pleasure
I'll sail this ship alone
Amongst the sharks and the treasure
If you would rather go your way then go your way
I'll sail this ship alone

Well, they said if I burnt myself alive
That you'd come running back
