lyrics

Dear fickle teen
Let me know what you are thinking
Tell me what you mean
We could stop this ship from sinking

If it never sails if it never sails if it never sails
If it never sails if it never sails if it never sails

Dear brand new lover
We must tread very very lightly
Hearts always recover
But it's worse if they're wound up tightly

When this derails when this derails when this derails
When this derails when this derails when this derails

Dear it is true
I place all my trust in you
I have no doubt
You'll make sure to see this through

Unless you're telling tales telling tall tales telling tall tales
Are you telling tales telling tall tales telling tall tales

Dear potential heartbreak you worry me these days
Will we fall apart
When we're off on holiday

Please do not bail please do not bail please do not bail
Please do not bail please do not bail please do not bail

Inhale exhale we are not frail we are not frail
Inhale exhale the ship set sail the ship set sail

Nobody knows where it could go the ship set sail
I do not know where this will go the ship set sail
