My Mind’s a Ship (That’s Going Down)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I guess I like my job just fine Taking orders, pouring wine Yet inside, I am so unsure 'Cause I long to be so much more When I get home from work at night I read up on the New York Times Doze off in my computer screen And pray it's all a crazy dream [Chorus] Through all the noise She's the anchor that is keeping me sound Oh, my mind's a ship that's going down [Verse 2] I saw big tall mountains of green On the cover of a magazine And thought to myself with a smile "I think I'll go there for a while" So I boarded a big jet plane Left my problems in the USA Had a lovely time in Ecuador Now I'm right back where I was before [Chorus] Through all the noise She's the anchor that is keeping me sound Oh, my mind's a ship that's going down Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh [Bridge] Oh, Hollywood has stole my soul Those city lights swallow me whole She's nothing like the models on the screen No, she's the realest thing I've ever seen [Chorus] Through all the noise Love's the only thing that matters anyhow Oh, my mind's a ship that's going down Oh, my mind's a ship that's going down Oh, my mind's a ship that's going down
