Carpenters - Like sailin' on a sailin' ship to nowhere lyrics

Shall I begin from here to tell everything ?

Relinquish honour in order to make it ring ?

You'd have to give me your promise

You won't expect too much from this

You'll just be happy with the gold that I bring

We've been playing cat and mouse now for far too long

I can't let it simmer and just go gruelling on

I have to make my move

I've still got so much to prove

You can't imagine the life that I've had

Chorus: If I could put the words together

If I could put the words together

If only i could put the words together

You'd understand

You've been a magnet stuck in my memory

I'd hide if i could but I'm red in a yellow sea

Consider me lost in aspic

(I'd give in but that's not my schtick)

You'll haunt me for ever, I know you will

Chorus: If I could put the words together

If I could put the words together

If only i could put the words together

You'd understand
