When The Ship Goes Down - The Holidays
did i catch you in a moment?
you're old boyfriend stands behind
thinking of excuses
he can use for the second time
i was talking with an old friend
he was trying to help me to decide
if a flower's still a flower
after all the petals die
maybe it was over
or maybe he was trying to find
a way back to your heart
you didn't really seem to mind
so i'll stay on my own
forget all the people i know
when the ones that i don't
well i'm a reasonable man
i keep my heart in my hands
when the ship goes down
no i won't be around
you know i won't be around
what happened to the last guy
i heard he wouldn't tow the line
when he said i'm sorry
well you said i tried
the problem with romance
is that romance will tend to die
when it does will you hold hands
when it does will you cry
so i'll stay on my own
forget all the people i know
when the ones that i don't
well i'm a reasonable man
i keep my heart in my hands
when the ship goes down
no i won't be around
you know i won't be around
