Golden Ship

(album: Holy Smoke - 2009)

Turn the light off me
Take your arms from me
I don't see any other way
Close your eyes to me
Keep my love for me when you go
Don't make this to hard to say
At only 16 still a beauty queen
Lord I'm dying, let me leave

[Chorus]
Goodbye, goodbye to all of this
I've got this golden ship
who said can save me
And tomorrow feels like yesterday
I cannot live this way, I'm sorry darling

And I need no more healing
For I can't stop the bleeding
So leave me with this feeling
And let me have this

One more day with you
One more hour for you
I don't see any other way
And don't you see I'm dying
Does this explain my crying, hope
I will not see another day

I'll save a place for you
Mend your heart
Even if you go out
Don't make this too hard
To say at only 16 still a beauty queen
Lord I'm dying, let me leave

[Chorus]
Goodbye, goodbye to all of this
I've got this golden ship
Who said can save me
And tomorrow feels like yesterday
I cannot feel this way, I'm sorry darling

And I need no more healing
For I can't stop the bleeding
So leave me with this feeling
Help me find a way out
A door to keep the pain out
And I can't bear to stay now

At only 16 still a beauty queen
Lord I'm dying, let me leave

[Chorus]
Goodbye, goodbye to all of this
I've got this golden ship
Who said can save me
And tomorrow feels like yesterday
I cannot feel this way, I'm sorry darling

Goodbye, goodbye my love
Goodbye, goodbye my love

Release your hands from me
So I can leave
Lastly, I would like to leave with grace
Today is just too hard
Too hard for me to stay
