lyrics

I must get back to the sea, you said to me.
And when the wind shifts, your sail will take, you won't see me again.
And I always gave you the best of me, but you didn't save it.
I guess you thought it was too heavy.

I'm a gentle woman, and I swear I'll do you right.
I'm a gentle woman, and I swear I'll do you right.
I, I, and I swear I'll do you right.
I, I, and I swear I’ll do you right.

We used to make play dates in the backyard after the storm.
And you said- sure things come apart, but we'll just fix them again.
I saw the things you lost in the fire that say.
But I left them there, I left them there.
I left them in the fire.

I'm I gentle woman, and I swear I'll do you right.
I'm a gentle woman and I swear I'll do you right.

I'm I gentle woman, and I swear I'll do you right.
I'm a gentle woman and I swear I'll do you right.

I, I, and I swear I'll do you right.
I, I, and I swear I'll do you right.
