[Verse 1]

If you don't want a daughter

Then I'll give you a son

I'll give you every penny

For every song that I've sung



[Chorus]

Cause baby when you're gentle

It's all that it takes

And oh, my heart breaks

Yeah oh, my soul shakes



[Verse 2]

You can be the captain

I surrender my boat

If you're tired of south, then baby

We're sailing north



[Chorus]

See baby when you're gentle

It's all that it takes

And oh, my heart breaks

Yeah oh, my soul shakes



[Verse 3]

I can tell the angels

They can take me instead

Cause babe if you go missin'

Then I'd rather be dead



[Chorus]

Cause baby when you're gentle

It's all that it takes

And oh, my heart breaks

Yeah oh, my soul shakes

Yeah oh, my heart breaks

Yeah oh, my soul shakes

Oh, my heart breaks

Yeah oh, my soul shakes

Oh, my heart breaks

Yeah oh, my soul shakes
