you'll do what you've always done 
stay too long 
pretending you're a suitor 
or a knight in shining armor 
and i'm a damsel in this dress 

what a mess we've made of things 
you've been content to play the part 
of an ill-suited lover 
in a prime-time t.v. sitcom 
and i've been swiftly blown about 
wearing my heart on my sleeve...

I am here digging a tunnel to nowhere
a spade wearing an heart on its sleeve
a diamond of gems not belong to a club

I am here a star in the sky hard to find
sharing a life with a flailing light 
and many bulbs flowering come spring

I am here a win win of nothing to lose
if only a blank stare to master
a hand of poker and a game of yonder...

This love stuff is a demon.
This mess hurts awfully.
I'm in the era of hard feelings.
I wish that this love bicycle,
Would stop wheeling.
This love stuff hurts.
I wish that this stuff would leave.
I guess that's what I get,
For wearing my heart on my sleeve.
This love crap needs to be leaving.
This love mess is a demon.

The ocean is a beautiful woman
With ebony hair drawn back into a fancy do
Wearing ethereal pearls on her neck

The ocean is watching the golden fish
Enjoying them and protecting them
With the might of her soul self

The ocean is a spirit mama
Protecting her young and her old ones
Watching them during storms to make sure they are face

The ocean is a beautiful woman
With the spirit of the sea
Wearing her heart on her sleeve...
