Sailboat

by Cavetown

Lyrics
[Cavetown]
Baby, on your back, get comfy for me
Like a pillow in my lap
Hide my body and keep it to yourself
I'm a wreck, when you're near, I'm a sailboat
With your name on my neck
Get closer to me

[Cavetown]
I keep you waiting
I can't explain it

[Cavetown]
(Hey!)
Honey, you're the one that I want and I never wanna hurt you

Maybe that's the reason I'm so nervous when you ask me for a tattoo
(Hey!)
Honey, you're the one that I want and I never wanna hurt you
Maybe that's the reason I'm so nervous when you ask me for a tattoo

[chloe moriondo]
I'll let you stab right in with the ink
And I think that if you had my skin
You would never have to wonder
Why I feel so mean to myself and the others
Why I get so sad on the phone with my mother
But I'll be your canvas
If it can ever fix this
Ask you to carve my case and let me go

[chloe moriondo]
And I'll call you on the way home
Let you know I'm not bleeding anymore, 'cause
I will always be your sailboat
Reel you in when you're crying on the shore, oh
I feel fine
I can't cut the line

[chloe moriondo & Cavetown]
(Hey!)
Honey, you're the one that I want and I never wanna hurt you
Maybe that's the reason I'm so nervous when you ask me for a tattoo
(Hey!)
Honey, you're the one that I want and I never wanna hurt you
Maybe that's the reason I'm so nervous when you ask me for a tattoo

Honey, you're the one that I want and I never wanna hurt you
(Honey, you're the one)
(Honey, you're the one)
(Honey, you're the one)
Maybe that's the reason I'm so nervous when you ask me for a tattoo
(Honey, you're the one)
(Honey, you're the one)
(Honey, you're the one)
(Honey, you're the one)

[chloe moriondo & Cavetown]
One
Honey, you're the one
Honey, you're the one
Honey, you're the one (I never wanna hurt)
Honey, you're the one

Honey, you're the one
Honey, you're the one
