i've never been so alone, and i've never been so alive
sometimes when sailors are sailing
they think twice about where they're anchoring
and i think i could make better use of my time on land
i'll drink less, cuz Lord knows i could use a warm kiss instead of a cold goodbye
i'm writing the folks back home to tell them
"hey, i'm doing alright"
it's a shame what your father did to your brother's head
he smashed it with a telephone
your mother got scared and locked the door
you were only 4, but Lord you remember it
so now you're scared of love
but i'm here to tell you that love just ain't some blood on the receiver
love is speaking in code
it's an inside joke
love is coming home
