They say it's better to have loved and lost
than never to have loved at all
But like the knee scrape when I was six
I think I would just rather miss the fall
But whats come and gone can't be undone
That ship was torn apart
Even though no storm blew down
your ghost still haunts my heart
I sail on from day to day
A soldier of pop art
But I'll never sail calm seas through life
Cause your ghost still haunts my heart
Yes, your ghost still haunts my heart
Can you hear my cry for freedom
Please leave your clinging host
An imperfect heart lies in my chest
That sails that lonely coast
I sail on from day to day
A soldier of pop art
But I'll never sail calm seas through life
Cause your ghost still haunts my heart
Yes, your ghost still haunts my heart
My dark and dangerous secret
that can never calm the seas
My personal shipwreck has gone down
My heart, the casualty
So now I raise the main sail
My voyage continues on
And though I sail 10,000 miles
The seas can never calm
I sail on from day to day
A soldier of pop art
But I'll never sail calm seas through life
Cause your ghost still haunts my heart
Yes, your ghost still haunts my heart
