A Love Story
With the ringing of a horn
and a man yelling all aboard.
I knew I had to get on somehow.
I saw a line that I climbed
Hid out in a pile of boxes that laid below deck.
When the ship set sail I knew I was going somewhere.
Knew my life was soon to start.
The first night I laid low,
the second night I met a girl who stole my heart
loosing myself in her eyes
I slowly let her into my life.
She saw who I was an
unwealthy and uneducated man,
with a life of unknown adventures ahead.
The ship hit and started to sink.
We grabbed each others hand and ran quick.
Wish I would have met her in another time
where we could have laughed and cried.
Never thought it would end like this
holding the hand of a girl I never kissed.
As our souls drifted away and we became one.
Our bodies lied limp together and the sea won.
