I only love him because he reminds me of you
I only go there because you once wanted to
and I'd never have gone if you hadnt have said I was wise
never have found myself singing and
gazing through somebody's doorway
I went to the coast and I walked in the waves for a while
The wind and the rain said you sure were taking your time
I told them that I didnt mind, I was living my life
and that you were just a book on a shelf in somebody's hallway
And in a few miles I met my dream pirate boy
sitting on a wet rock with a sword and, a guitar
wishing on old daddy neptune and the stars
for a womanfolk to help him mend his ark
mend his sails and his heart
and now we are happy
we have a boat and some guns
and beautiful children in the rigging with swords
I do love him so, he reminds me of you
we've travelled the globe, you'd have wanted me to
and I'd never have been if you hadn't have said I was wise
never have seen the whole world, joy through my own eyes
wouldn't have found myself standing so shyly
on somebody's gangway
i just googled lisa loeb. her wiki page encourages me! thanks.
