Carsie Blanton - 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
