I’ll Sail This Ship Alone

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Paul Heaton] 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 [Pre-Chorus 1: Heaton] Well, they said if I wrote the perfect love song That you would take me back Well I wrote it, but I lost it And now will you take me back anyway? [Verse 2: Heaton, Dave Hemingway & Heaton] 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 [Chorus: Heaton, Hemingway, Hemingway & Heaton] I'll sail this ship alone (Ba ba, ah) Between the, the pain and the pleasure I'll sail this ship alone (Ba ba, ah) Amongst the, the sharks and the treasure If you would rather go your way, then go your way I'll sail this ship alone [Verse 3: Heaton, Hemingway, Hemingway & Heaton] If, if you're afraid That I won't make the grade Well then, I'll sail this ship alone (Ba ba) And if, if you agree To him instead of me Well then, I'll sail this ship alone (Ba ba) [Pre-Chorus 2: Heaton, Hemingway & Heaton] Well they said if I wrote the perfect letter That I would have a chance Well I wrote it, and you burnt it And now do I have a chance anyway? [Verse 4: Heaton, Hemingway & Heaton] If, if you swear That you no longer care Well then I'll sail this ship alone [Chorus: Heaton, Hemingway, Hemingway & Heaton] I'll sail this ship alone (Ba ba, ah) Between the, the pain and the pleasure I'll sail this ship alone (Ba ba, ah) Amongst the, the sharks and the treasure If you would rather go your way, then go your way I'll sail this ship alone [Outro: Heaton] Well they said if I burnt myself alive That you'd come running back
