Christen My Ship

You bent yourself down to adjust a crimson heel

But when you grabbed my arm I knew it was for real

So I asked you 'bout your dreams and you made a list for me

Then I set my sails and the rest is history

Now take this my letterman

It’s not much but it's better than

Those frilly things that never kept you quite warm

Christen my ship

Swing your bottle, don't miss

I’ll return bearing gifts by and by

Blow me a kiss

Wave your white handkerchief

In a year I will sit by your side

Soon I will sail for Greece but hide from you my fears

And every day that passes by will seem like years

But I will warm myself with knowledge that you're mine

And likewise I am yours and thus we are entwined

So keep lit a flame for me

And I'll do the same for thee

They're symbols but see how they shine

Christen my ship

Swing your bottle, don't miss

I'll return bearing gifts by and by

One, two, three, four dozen moons worth of time

I will still hear the lilt in your voice

Five, six, eight, nine magic mountains I'll climb

There will be just one flag I will hoist

Christen my ship

Swing your bottle, don't miss

I’ll return bearing gifts by and by
