Well I'm not asking you
To come and be my bride
Somehow I know
We'll never be wed
So I'm swallowing my pride
And I'm asking you
To come and lay down by my side
And we'll toss like ships on our stormy, stormy bed
If you don't want me to say I love you
I could say I needed you instead
But I'm not pleading with you
You can leave me anytime
To face the lonely days ahead
You don't have to stay
Because today could be forever
This is the last tear I shed for you
As we toss like ships on our stormy, stormy bed
Stormy bed, yeah
Well come back
Wait a minute come back
I didn't mean a thing I said
We've got to find the track
Somewhere along
We must've lost the thread
And maybe it seemed
Like I wanted you to go
But don't you know
I'd rather be dead
I just want to toss like ships on our stormy, stormy bed
Tossing yeah, on a stormy bed
Turning, still burning
Losing my head, yeah
You hear what I said?
Sometimes I'd rather be dead
