The closer you get
The further I'm prepared to go
I'll go to hell, I hope I don't have to stay
I'll send my love a postcard inside a rose scented envelope
The message will sing
I wish you were here
Beside me my dear
I wish you were here
To sail in my tears
The rest of my life I'll be waiting
I lie here and stare
I know that you're out there
It's silent and dark here inside, if only you'd end this torture
And cut these hidden ties
Come close I want to look deep in your eyes
I wish you were here
Beside me my dear
I wish you were here
To sail in my tears
The rest of my life I'll be waiting
The pirate in me
That drags me toward the sea
At least it's a place I can be alone get caught up in the storm
I watch the waves come crashing
I see your face as they give me my 40 lashes
I wish you were here
Beside me my dear
I wish you were here
To sail in my tears
The rest of my life I'll be waiting
