Garth Brooks - The Ship and the Bottle Lyrics




I was made for the diving bar
I'm pretty good for a night
I can sure hold my whiskey
And my tequila or wine
You were meant for the ocean
Silver water and wind
You're the ship, I'm the bottle
I'm gonna hold you in

And I don't know how you got here
I know they all wonder too
'Cause when they're looking at us, girl
They're really looking at you
You just might have to break me
To do what you're meant to do
You're the ship, I'm the bottle
I can't do that to you

I wanna stay wrapped around you
But we both know that I can't
So let the breeze fill your sails, girl
And sink your toes in the sand
Maybe I'll write you a letter
Maybe I'll keep it inside
Maybe someday you'll get it
While you're out chasin' the tide

'Cause I don't know how you got here
I know they all wonder too
'Cause when they're looking at us, girl
They're really looking at you
You just might have to break me
To do what you're meant to do
You're the ship, I'm the bottle
I can't do that to you

You just might have to break me
I know you don't want to
You're the ship, I'm the bottle
I want to keep you, I do
You're the ship, I'm the bottle
I can't do that to you

Sail away, sail like I don't love you
Sail away, sail like I don't need you
Sail away, sail away, my baby
