I'll Sail My Ship Alone Lyrics

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 gave a message to the wind to take back home to you
Hoping you would hear my SOS
Maybe you would come back home my darling, if you knew
How much my aching heart is in distress
