Come sail your ships around me

And burn your bridges down

We make a little history, baby

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



Come sail your ships around me

And burn your bridges down

We make a little history, baby

Every time you come around



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, baby

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
