We've been sweethearts for so long
But now you say, we're through
The love we shared is now a memory
I have built a ship of dreams
And planned them all for you
But now I guess what is to be, will beI'll sail my ship alone
With all the dreams I own
Drifting out across the ocean blue
Yes, I'll sail my ship alone
Though all the sails you've torn
And when it starts to sinkin', I'll blame youNow, I gave a message to the wind
To take back home to you
Hoping you would hear my SOS
I thought that you would come back home
My darlin', if you knew
How much my achin' heart was in distressWell, I'll sail my ship alone
With all the dreams I own
Drifting out across the ocean blue
Yes, I'll sail my ship alone
Though all the sails you've torn
And when it starts to sinkin', I'll blame you
