Lyrics for Sailboat

Baby, on your back (back), get (get) comfy for me Like a pillow in my lap (lap) Hide my body and keep it to yourself (self) I'm a wreck (wreck), when you're near, I'm a sailboat With your name on my neck (neck), get closer to me I keep you waiting I can't explain it (Hey) honey, you're the one that I want And I never wanna hurt you Maybe that's the reason I'm so nervous When you ask me for a tattoo (Hey) honey, you're the one that I want And I never wanna hurt you Maybe that's the reason I'm so nervous Like, you ask me for a tattoo I'll let you stab right in with the ink And I think that if you had my skin, you would never have to wonder Why I feel so mean to myself and the others Why I get so sad on my phone with my mother But I'll be your canvas if it can ever fix this Ask you to carve my case and let me go And I'll call you on the way home Let you know I'm not bleeding anymore 'Cause I will always be your sailboat Reel you in when you're crying on the shore, oh I feel fine I can't cut the line (Hey) honey, you're the one that I want And I never wanna hurt you Maybe that's the reason I'm so nervous When you ask me for a tattoo (Hey) honey, you're the one that I want And I never wanna hurt you Maybe that's the reason I'm so nervous Like, you ask me for a tattoo Ho-ho-honey, you're the one that I want And I never wanna hurt you (honey, you're the one) Maybe that's the reason I'm so nervous When you ask me for a tattoo (honey, you're the one) (Honey, you're the one, honey, you're the one) (Honey, you're the one, honey, you're the one) (Honey, you're the one, honey, you're the one)
