Ian Hunter - Ships текст песни

(ian hunter)

We walked to the sea, just my father and me

And the dogs played around on the sand.

Winter cold cut the air, hanging still everywhere

Dressed in gray did he say hold my hand?

I said loves easier when its far away

We sat and watched the distant lights.

Were two ships that pass in the night

And we smile when we say its alright.

Were still here, its just that were out of sight

Like those ships that pass in the night.

Theres a boat on the line where the sea meets the sky.

Theres another that rides far behind.

And it seems you and I are like strangers a wide

Ways apart as we drift on through time.

He said its harder now youre far away

We only read you when you write.

Were two ships that pass in the night

We both smile when we say its alright.

Were still here, oh its just that were out of sight

Like those ships that pass in the night.

Were two ships that pass in the night

Were two ships that pass in the night

Were two ships that pass in the night

(repeat and fade)
