[Verse 1]

Every time that you tell me you want it

I can read your mind and I’m not even on it

And now I see it, feel it, clearer than the morning

If you’re gonna go, then give a warning

I don’t wanna be the rock that holds you down

[Pre Chorus]

This ship has run aground

Oh oh

[Chorus]

And I'll be an anchor for you

Oh oh, oh

But you're always cutting me loose

Oh oh, oh oh

[Post-Chorus]

I'll be your night watch

Your lighthouse, your North Star

Your red sky, your harbor

Your ocean, your shipyard

But you want to sail

With the night wind exploring

So how can I love you

If safe waters bore you?

[Verse 2]

Far away when you're sitting right by me

But I remember when the fire was blinding

And now I see it, feel it, clearer than the morning

If you're gonna go, then give a warning

I don't wanna be the one to hold you down

I'll always be around

Oh oh

[Chorus]

And I'll be an anchor for you

Oh oh, oh

But you're always cutting me loose

Oh oh, oh oh

[Post-Chorus]

I'll be your night watch

Your lighthouse, your North Star

Your red sky, your harbor

Your ocean, your shipyard

But you want to sail

With the night wind exploring

So how can I love you

If safe waters bore you?

[Bridge]

You're out there looking for the answers

I'm here just tryna be your anchor

But I will never try to hold you down

(Hold me down)

You're out there looking for the answers

I'm here just tryna be your anchor

But I will never try to hold you down, do-own

(Hold me down)

Down, down, down

[Chorus]

And I'll be an anchor for you

Oh oh, oh

But you're always cutting me loose

Oh oh, oh oh
