[Verse 1]
I never sought to love you
Never thought you would love me
So I was wrong about me loving you
And right about you loving me

[Verse 2]
Ships, they will break from their moorings
Vessels will float out to sea
Way on the drift, there goes my skiff
It's left me to float along the lea

[Verse 3]
Trees, they will shake loose their branches
Prairies, they shock into flame
Though it’s on land, change must be planned for
It's loneliness that never stays the same

[Verse 4]
I never sought to love you
Never thought you would love me
So I was wrong about me loving you
And right about you loving me
