You mean more to me than all the starlight in the world
And if you should go away I'd be a lonely girl
You bring joy into my life in oh so many ways
That if I should try to thank you, it would take up all my days
Now the ice caps are melting, and the world is growing thin
And people can't decide whether to sink and drown or swim
And you're the only lifeboat in this great big world of sin
But I'm a fool
And is it written in the sand or etched inside my mind
Will the winds of change stir up the words
And leave no trace behind
Or is it decided by all the powers that be
That we will live like pirates in a boat upon the sea
With all our friends beside us, we'll have all we need to be free
And how long will you be angry with me
Now the ice caps are melting, and the world is growing thin
And people can't decide whether to sink and drown or swim
And you're the only lifeboat in this great big world of sin
But I'm a fool
And is it written in the sand or etched inside my mind
Will the winds of change stir up the words
And leave no trace behind
Or is it decided by all the powers that be
That we will live like pirates in a boat upon the sea
With all our friends beside us, we'll have all we need
And how long will you be angry with me
