Harbor

it isn’t safe out here

it’s perfectly clear

I should have known it was a big mistake

I could have stayed at home

not answered the phone

and never given you my heart to break

but lovers run to ruin

soldiers run to war

ships are safe in harbor

but that ain’t what ships are for

hearts are made for breaking

you were made for me

so batten down the hatches honey

we’ll sail away to sea

we had a lot to learn

and courage to burn

we were the cutest little fools in town

I was an awful mess

but you were the best

and I was trying not to let you down

but lovers run to ruin

soldiers run to war

ships are safe in harbor

but that ain’t what ships are for

hearts are made for breaking

you were made for me

so batten down the hatches honey

we’ll sail away to sea

it can seem insane

the wind and the rain

howling through the dark of the night

but when the stars come out

the darkest of doubts

is nothing to the joy

of their light

it isn’t safe out there

and you’re gettin scared

and honey you got every right to be

but the time is now

so steady the prow

and go ahead into the mystery

lovers run to ruin

soldiers run to war

ships are safe in harbor

but that ain’t what ships are for

hearts are made for breaking

you were made for me

so batten down the hatches honey

we’ll sail away to sea
