Waiting for a ship and singing a song
I don't know what to do if I'm left alone
I ain't used to living on my own
So I'll send out an S.O.S.
A note that says I'm in distress
Horizon fading fading fast
Nighttime comes but I will not rest
Chorus:
Where are you, princess?
Didn't you hear my S.O.S.?
I know I haven't treated you best
But I'm in distress - and I thought of you
The water is salty and the palms are small
Only an echo answers whenever I call
I don't know what to do if I have to stay
You and the sea made me a castaway
So I'll send out - a bottle of glass
Put on a sail so it'll get to you fast
Would you read it if you knew it was from me?
And is it easy to forget the past?
Chorus:
Where are you, princess?
Didn't you hear my S.O.S.?
I know I haven't treated you best
But I'm in distress - and I thought of you
Please come steal me, S.O.S.
Please come take me, S.O.S.
There goes my last chance
There sails my only chance
Hope you won't break the bottle
Like we always broke one another
But I'm in distress
And this is my S.O.S.
Chorus:
Where are you, princess?
Didn't you hear my S.O.S.?
I know I haven't treated you best
But I'm in distress - and I thought of you
I thought of you
I thought of you
Princess
