|
Like ships in the night |
|
You keep passing me by |
|
We're just wasting time |
|
Trying to prove who's right |
|
And if it all goes crashing into the sea |
|
If it's just you and me |
|
Trying to find the light |
|
Like ships in the night letting cannon balls fly |
|
Say what you mean and it turns to a fight |
|
Fist fly from my mouth as it turns south |
|
You're down the driveway... I'm on the couch |
|
Chasing your dreams since the violent 5th grade |
|
Trying to believe in your silent own way |
|
Cause we'll be ok... I'm not going away |
|
Like you watched at fourteen as it went down the drain |
|
And pops stayed the same and your moms moved away |
|
How many of our parents seem to make it anyway |
|
We're just fumbling through the grey |
|
Trying find a heart that's not walking away |
|
Turn the lights down low |
|
Walk these halls alone |
|
We can feel so far from so close |
|
Like ships in the night |
|
You keep passing me by |
|
We're just wasting time |
|
Trying to prove who's right |
|
And if it all goes crashing into the sea |
|
If it's just you and me trying to find the light |
|
Like ships in the night |
|
You're passing me by |
|
You're passing me by |
|
Like ships in the night |
|
And I'm at the airport waiting on a second plane |
|
Had to pack and you had cramps and I was late |
|
Headed to a red carpet they won't know my name |
|
Riding in silence all that we wanna say |
|
About to board when you call on the phone |
|
You say "I'm sorry. I'll be waiting at home" |
|
Feels like we're learning this out on our own |
|
Trying to find a way down the road we don't know |
|
Turn the lights down low |
|
Walk these halls alone |
|
We can feel so far from so close |
|
Like ships in the night |
|
You keep passing me by |
|
We're just wasting time |
|
Trying to prove who's right |
|
And if it all goes crashing into the sea |
|
If it's just you and me |
|
Trying to find the light |
|
Like ships in the night |
|
You're passing me by |
|
You're passing me by |
|
Like ships in the night |
|
And I'm gonna find my way |
|
Back to your side |
|
And I'm gonna find my way |
|
Back to your side |
|
Like ships in the night |
|
You keep passing me by |
|
We're just wasting time |
|
Trying to prove who's right |
|
And if it all goes crashing into the sea |
|
If it's just you and me |
|
Trying to find the light |
|
Like ships in the night |
|
You're passing me by |
|
You're passing me by |
|
Like ships in the night |
