Lyrics
Battleships
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.
When will you carry me home like the wounded star in the movie
When will you carry me home take it back to the start when you knew me
Cause when you talk to me that way, I'll be a million miles away
I guess it's just another day in love
We're battleships, driftin' in an alley river
Takin' hits, sinking it's now or never
Overboard, drownin' in a sea of love and hate but it's too late
Battleship down
When will you figure it out that you're not always right little darlinÂ'
When will you figure out that it's not worth the fight little darlinÂ'
Cause when you can't think what to say, you go and throw it all away
I guess it's just another day in love
We're battleships, driftin' in an alley river
Takin' hits, sinking it's now or never
Overboard, drownin' in a sea of love and hate but it's too late
Battleship down
But your too smarter and I'm too dumb
With no heart in the middle
We're battleships, driftin' in an alley river
Takin' hits, sinking it's now or never
Overboard, falling into the ocean
Ship to shore, drownin' in a sea of love and hate but it's too late
Battleship down
