[Verse 1]
Hey!
Arms of the ocean reach out for you!
Rusty pipes
Can't help calling for you too!
The brine is finer than wine
But be careful not to drink too much
'Cause there are remains
On the bottom of that cup

[Chorus]
If you fear you've had enough
Of that salty stuff
I'm on the beach
Reading a book
Lost in a page
Lost for an age
I could be your bonfire
And you could be my ship out at sea

[Verse 2]
Look
I'm not after your charity
And my dear
I don't want you pleased with yourself
What is that feeling of pride when you
Throw your coin in a beggar's cap?
Selfless acts are quite selfish
When you think about 'em like that!
[Chorus]
But I've been thinking of you
And how to improve
'Cause I'm in a fix
Your heart is a tool
Help someone who's close!
Could be me, right? Who knows?
You could be my handout
And I'd be your good deed for the day

[Bridge]
I want a puzzle I don't have to beat
A watch I don't have to wind, yeah
I really wanna find your missing piece
And make it mine
All mine, all mine!
Oh!

[Chorus]
So if you're hopeless and beat
Lower than your feet
Or up to your neck
Or down on your knees
In way too deep
Or out of ideas
I could be your brainchild
If you promise to take care of me
Whoa
I could be your bonfire
And you could be my ship out at sea
(One more time!)
I could be your boyfriend
And you can pretend not to know me
