The Mountain Goats - Sail On lyrics

Sail on down the road 'bout a half a mile or so And I tried to make you stay, But now you're going It was plain to see that a small town boy like me Just wasn't your cup of tea that was wishful thinking I gave you my heart and I tried to make you happy You gave me nothing in return You know it ain't so hard to say, 'would you please just go away?' You come to comfort me But I don't need your sympathy And the way you look at me, well it's condescending. I feel my stomach churn And didn't you ever learn Not to tell someone something if you don't mean it I gave you my heart and I tried to make you happy You gave me nothing in return You know it ain't so hard to say, 'would you please just go away?' Sail on. Sail on. Sail on
