Mr. Tugboat Hello

Sophie B. Hawkins

You won't be strong

For me I'm sure

How could I have lost my heart

To one so insecure

Desire

Hard to resist

But for whom

I exist



Love I give my eyes to read your signs

No compromise your faith is mine

I don't despise the endless time

It takes to realize that I

Am just a fool

Though you were cruel

To show me paradise so soon



I don't know why

I hardly care

Happy disillusions fade

When passion's in the air

Fire water and salt

Madness inspired

Pain

Let it remain my fault



Hate me for a while I saw you cheat

It's not my style to break the heat

Murder is vile and death is sweet

I have to smile at my defeat

Yes I'm insane

Though just the same

You must have recognized my name



Mr. Tugboat hello

Ocean liner

Finer day no ma'am

Oooh and I have no plans

Just to do as I please

Back to the breeze

Sailing around my island

Everybody's outside

Love has arrived

I wanna be your friend

Living it up together baby

Give me up I'll

Drive you crazy

Can't find me baby

So climb



The story's true

I can't deny

First thing I was born to see

Was mama cry

Raspberries and wine

Boxing gloves

Train stations and valentines



Paris I'm in debt I can't come home

My lips are wet I hate the phone

J'ai un regrette et mes chansons

I bumped my head while you were gone

You thought for you

As though for two
