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
And i wonder sometimes and i know i'm unkind
but i need you to turn to when i act so blind
and 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, well 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
