lyrics

Like Ships Need The Sea

My mother once told me I don’t need a man to be the best I can be
But just one look from you I’m changing my plans
‘Cause darlin’ I need you like ships need the sea
Darlin’ I need you like ships need the sea


My grandfather told me that real men don’t cry
But I saw your tears in the moonlight
That’s when I knew that my grandfather lied
And darlin’ I need you like birds need the sky
Darlin’ I need you like birds need the sky


Finally you gave me the hope I’d awaited
Finally you gave me your heart
Gladly I gave you the love you’d awaited
Gladly I gave you my heart
Finally you gave me the hope I’d awaited
Finally you gave me your heart
Gladly I gave you the love you’d awaited
Gladly I gave you my heart


That preacher, he told me that love’s not easy
I told him I don’t want it to be
Darlin’ I need you like ships need the sea
And I’m gonna love you, I’m gonna love you
I’m gonna love you for all of our days, I’m gonna love you for all of our days
