You're not a ship to carry my life

You are NAILED to my love in many lonely nights.

I've strayed from the cottages and found myself here

For I need your love. Your love protects my fears.



(Chorus)

And I wonder sometimes, and I know I'm unkind,

But I need you to turn to when I act so blind.

Oh I need you to turn to when I lose control

You're my guardian angel who keeps out the cold.



Did you paint your smile on when I said I knew

That my reason for living was for loving you

We're related in feeling, but you're high above

You're pure and you're gentle, with the grace of a dove.



(chorus
