lyrics

TUGBOATS

Have you got a lot on today?
cause I’d like to see you
if that’s ok

You’ve been sending
Postcards in the mail
Pretty things and words with strings
and I’m picking up the trail

Are you sure that what you’re doing is real?
I can’t afford for you to love me because you’re bored
I’ve got too many mouths to feed

You said that my head’s been floating through your galaxy
I’m just a girl - susceptible to all kinds of strange flattery

Always sending tugboats
With messages inside
Keeps my ship from sinking
Keeps my hopes alive

Tugboats chugging in the shape of hearts
Creeps towards in the dark and makes me feel like a fool
Tugboats chugging in the shape of hearts
Creeps towards in the dark I’ll do what you want me to
Tugboats chugging out to sea
Tells me you’re gonna be with me and helps me find my way through
Tugboats chugging out to sea
Take me with you - I’ll take you with me
