Shipwrecked
In your eyes
I found a beacon
And I was drawn in
Like a ship in the night
And when I reached shore
I felt safe and secure
In the shadow of your light
In my heart
I built a paradise
And forgot the world outside
In your heart
I tried to build a paradise
But you never let me
In your smile
I found a treasure
A worth I could never measure
But one I could live on
I tried to barter with you
To show you my value
But nothing was bought
In my heart
I built a paradise
And forgot the world outside
In your heart
I tried to build a paradise
But you never let me
At first you were a stranger
But soon I knew I was in danger
Because I fell in love with you
But you never accepted my treaty
You sent me back out to sea
As not even a friend to you
In my heart
I built a paradise
And forgot the world outside
In your heart
I tried to build a paradise
But you never let me
I'm shipwrecked
Don't know what to do
I'm shipwrecked
Still in love with you
