and sing -alongs lying in the road
I took scissors in my pocket
to guide you safely from my home
You were sleeping when I got there,
I knew it's what you wanted
but there's a choice you had to make
What the hell was I thinking?
But what's a boy like me to do?
Step by step we will find
There's a look upon your face,
and it scares me half to death
So between just me and you,
what's the chance of breaking through?
I'm the captain of this ship,
and if it sinks then I sink too
Oh it's the way that you say my name
That keeps it coming back to you,
It's the way that you say my name
It keeps it coming back to you
The nights were getting longer
like the stories that we've told
Of adventures that we've been on
so I took your hand to hold
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid
These city roads are winding
but the lights will guide our way
What the hell was I thinking?
I wasn't thinking, I wasn't thinking
But what's a boy like me to do?
What the hell were we drinking?
Step by step we will find
There's a look upon your face
and it scares me half to death
So between just me and you,
what's the charge of breaking through?
I'm the captain of this ship,
and if it sinks then I sink too
With every line that I wrote,
and every word that I spoke
what's a boy like me to do?
With the choice you had to make,
came a heart you had to break
that I'm glad we made it through?
It's the way that you say my name
It keeps me coming back to you,
It's the way that you say my name
It keeps me coming back to you,
