I'll Sail My Ship Alone
we've been sweethearts for so long
but now you say we're through,
the love we shared is now a memory.
i had built a ship of dreams
and planned them all for you,
and now,
i guess,
what is to be will be.
i'll sail my ship alone
with all the dreams i own,
drifting out across the ocean blue.
i'll sail my ship alone,
though all the sails you've torn,
and when it starts to sink
then i'll blame you.
i'm just like a ship at sea
that's lost without a sail,
the dark clouds hide the sun from up above.
and even with these broken dreams
my heart will never fail,
for deep inside there's only one true love.
i'll sail my ship alone
with all the dreams i own,
drifting out across the ocean blue.
i'll sail my ship alone,
though all the sails you've torn,
and when it starts to sink
then i'll blame you.
gave a message to the wind
to take back home to you,
hoping you would hear my s.o.s.
maybe you would come back home,
my darling,
if you knew how much my aching heart
is in distress.
i'll sail my ship alone
with all the dreams i own,
drifting out across the ocean blue.
i'll sail my ship alone,
though all the sails you've torn,
and when it starts to sink
then i'll blame you.
but now you say we're through,
the love we shared is now a memory.
i had built a ship of dreams
and planned them all for you,
and now,
i guess,
what is to be will be.
i'll sail my ship alone
with all the dreams i own,
drifting out across the ocean blue.
i'll sail my ship alone,
though all the sails you've torn,
and when it starts to sink
then i'll blame you.
i'm just like a ship at sea
that's lost without a sail,
the dark clouds hide the sun from up above.
and even with these broken dreams
my heart will never fail,
for deep inside there's only one true love.
i'll sail my ship alone
with all the dreams i own,
drifting out across the ocean blue.
i'll sail my ship alone,
though all the sails you've torn,
and when it starts to sink
then i'll blame you.
gave a message to the wind
to take back home to you,
hoping you would hear my s.o.s.
maybe you would come back home,
my darling,
if you knew how much my aching heart
is in distress.
i'll sail my ship alone
with all the dreams i own,
drifting out across the ocean blue.
i'll sail my ship alone,
though all the sails you've torn,
and when it starts to sink
then i'll blame you.
