Ships
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Honey, i'm shouting it out
From the rooftops
Hoping you might hear
What it is i'm saying
Honey, i'm singing this song
'til the pain stops
Or 'til you come home
And you say that you're staying
A wiser man would say
That i've lost you forever
But listen to this foolish heart
Of all my ships
That sailed away
Of all my bridges burned
Of all the words
I can't unsay
And all my lessons learned
I know this to be true
My worst mistake was you
Ever losing you
And breaking your heart
I thought knowing we
Can even only be friends
Would be the worse part
But i was wrong it seems
That the worse is not knowing
Baby, i'm seeing it clear
For the first time
If you just turned around
You would see that i'm growing
A wiser man would say
I shouldn't ask you for more
But should you ever miss these shores
Of all my ships
That sailed away
Of all my bridges burned
Of all the words
I can't unsay
And all my lessons learned
I know this to be true
My worst mistake was you
Ever losing you
And breaking your heart
