Ships In The Night

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 turns to a fight

And fist fly from my mouth, 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 okay, I'm not going away

Like you watching at fourteen as it went down the drain

And pops stayed the same and your moms moved away

How many of our parents seemed to make it anyway?

We're just fumbling through the gray

Trying find a heart that's not walking away

I 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

Just 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 keep passing me by

Passing me by, like ships in the night

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 said I'm sorry, I'll be waiting at home

Feels like we're learning this out on our own

Trying to find our way down the road we don't know

I 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 passing me by

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 passing me by

Passing me by, like ships in the night
