Breaking Vows - Melissa Ferrick

Love

Spreads like desire

Like a disease

All across my body

In my headaches everyday

For this lack of Par-ti-cipation

In the other half

The talk it out and make it last-half

That’s supposed to make up a good

Re-lation-ship

But this ship

It ain’t going nowhere

This ship is Docked-out

Parked-back

Stuck on this rock

With a hole in the bow

And she is breaking

Yes she’s breaking

Yeah she is breaking

This vessel is Breaking vows

N’my heart

Spreads like a flag

In wicked wind

It tears at the end

Straight out

Cutthroat

No give at the rope

Fly-high

Full-mast

Dear God this wind had better last

Or I’m gonna break

And mutter

Do it again do it again

Do it again do it again

But this ship

It ain’t going nowhere

This ship is Docked-out

Parked-back

Stuck on this rock

With a whole in the bow

And she is breaking

Yes she’s breaking

Yeah, she is breaking

This vessel is Breaking vows

Do it again do it again do it again

yeah …
