Sailorboy

You were playing chess with the old lady next door
Until she held out her hand
Held the king and she said
He'll watch you fall
He'll watch you crawl
He'll watch you fall

He'll watch you crawl to the dust
There's a boy behind the window
He's leaving marks on the glass
He's thinking 'bout past lovers
Yes, I was one of them
Would you like to go sailing
Making babies on the boat
But time has passed between us

Lovers come, lovers go
And we all grow old
He'll watch you fall
He'll watch you crawl
He'll watch you fall
He'll watch you crawl to the dust
You're standing on my doorstep
You're leaving me again
The same feelings crawl up

I am small, insecure
But not anymore
No, I won't fall
No, I won't crawl
No, I won't fall
No, I won't crawl
No, I won't fall
No, I won't crawl
No, I won't fall
No, I won't crawl for you anymore
Not for you anymore
