Battleships

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 drifting in our wee river
Taking hits, sinking, it's now or never
Overboard, drowning in a sea of love and hate
It's too late, battleship down

When will you figure it out
That you're not always right, little darlin'?
When will you figure out
That it's not worth the fight, little darlin'?

'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 drifting in our wee river
Taking hits, sinking, it's now or never
Overboard, drowning in a sea of love and hate
But it's too late, battleship down

But you're too smart and I'm too dumb
With no heart in the middle

We're battleships drifting in our wee river
Taking hits, sinking, it's now or never
Overboard, falling into the ocean
Ship to shore, drowning in a sea of love and hate
But it's too late, battleship down
