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 Love is for the making 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
