Come sail your ships around me
And burn your bridges down
We make a little history, darling

Every time you come around

Come loose your dogs upon me

And let your hair hang down
You are a little mystery to me
Every time you come around


We talk about it all night long
We define our moral ground

But when I crawl into your arms
Everything comes tumbling down


Your face has fallen sad now
For you know the time is nigh
When I must remove your wings

And you, you must try to fly

Come sail your ships around me

And burn your bridges down
We make a little history, darling
Every time you come around


Come loose your dogs upon me
And let your hair hang down

You are a little mystery to me
Every time you come around
