and the tide is keeping me from ever drowning my dreams
but it's alright, well it's alright
because i'm constantly dreaming of you
and i wish
that my youth
was a valid excuse
for everything i've done
girl, please don't turn and run tonight

and i hope you know (i hope you know)
that i'm sorry (that i'm sorry)
and i hope you know (i hope you know)
that i'm sorry (that i'm sorry)

and i want you to know
that love will be alright again
someday

honestly
this is my last pathetic attempt
i should be exempt
from writing these silly songs for you

and i hope you know (i hope you know)
that i'm sorry (that i'm sorry)
and i hope you know (i hope you know)
that i'm sorry (that i'm sorry)

and i want you to know
that love will be alright again
someday

we all die alone
but my heart could be your home
