I am a sailor on a ship and i
Love a girl with eyes as blue as the sea so high
But there’s a hole in the bottom of the ocean
And if I fall off of this deck, I may die
Well I am a soldier in a war and i
Have marched across a field so far down from the sky
And I don’t fear a bullet or a bayonet
But If I can’t see you again I may cry
Well I am an astronaut
Flying above earth on a ball of fire
There’s a comet headed right for me
So if I fall back down, I hope I land in the sea
I’ve traveled all across this whole damn world
And there’s nothing that I’ve seen quite like you
I’m sorry I’ve been gone so long,
I hope the missing pages weren’t too
Strong for you
But there’s nothing I’ve seen quite like you
Well I am scientist
Experimenting with radiation
If I grow a third arm, or a tentacle for a head,
I certainly hope you’d still find the time to
Sit with me in my bed
Well I am a vagabond
I roam around this land without purpose
I’ve grown quite a beard and I don’t smell very good
But I hope that you still think I’m at least hilarious
Well I am a writer and i
Pour my soul down onto a page
I might drink a bit, or put holes in walls, cause I can’t take the rage
But i would never hurt you, I’m just so tired of this place
Awh, heck,
Awh, heck
I’ve traveled all across this whole damn world
And there’s nothing that I’ve seen quite like you
I’m sorry I’ve been gone so long,
I hope the missing pages weren’t too
Strong for you
But there’s nothing I’ve seen quite like you
