If, if you choose that we will always lose
Well then I ll sail this ship alone
And if, if you decide to give him another try
Well then I ll sail this ship alone
Well they said if I wrote the perfect love song
You would take me back
Well I wrote it, but I lost it
And now will you take me back anyway
Now if, if you insist that this is for the best
Well then I ll sail this ship alone
And if, if you swear that you no longer care
Well then I ll sail this ship alone
I ll sail this ship alone
Between the pain and the pleasure
I ll sail this ship alone
Amongst the sharks and the treasure
If you would rather go your way then go your way
N/
I ll sail this ship alone
If, if you re afraid that I won t make the grade
Well then I ll sail this ship alone
And if, if you agree to him instead of me
Well then I ll sail this ship alone
Well they said if I wrote the perfect letter
That I would have a chance
Well I wrote it, and you burned it
And now do I have a chance anyway
If, if you swear that you no longer care
Well then I ll sail this ship alone
[Chorus]
Well they said if I burnt myself alive
That you d come running back
