lyrics

Two ships collide outside the pacific
In the most polite of ways
They talked to each other
And decided to weather
The oceans challenges together
We will search for buried treasure
And we’ll find a fount that grants life for ever
So we ripped our maps up
And we taped them into one
We shared in our dreams
And our destinations
And although in our hearts
We were awfully young
We decided that me and you
(echo) Me and you
Should sail the ocean blue
 
And from far away it looks like
Our X’s were in the same place
But the closer we get
They seem more and more separate
 
I wanted south
And I wanted west
So we compromised
And headed south west
 
I wanted south
And I wanted north
So Compromise
Came harder this time
 
We talked and we talked
And we argued some more
Until we finally set anchor
Straight down into the sea floor
I wanted you
And your whole crew
To join me
On my journey
Because I know that one things for sure
I’ve got my mind and my heart on the greatest treasure
 
I cut the rope
The one that held our boats together
I cut the rope
The one that kept us floating close
I cut the rope
The one that held our hearts together
I cut the rope
I cut the rope
 
You cut the rope
The one that held our boats together
You cut the rope
The one that kept us floating close
You cut the rope
The one that held our hearts together
You cut the rope
You cut the rope
 
I turned my boat around to face your back
I told my whole crew to attack
I pulled up alongside your bow
If I’m going down, well you’re going down
 
When lovers throw stones
They just puncture their own
Poor lifeless and windless sails
I guess I was thinking
That If your ship was sinking
A couple more inches then mine
That I would be fine, But I ignored the hole
That was flooding our Relationship
 
It’s easy, falling in love
But It’s harder saying you’ve had enough
