Ship In The Dock

Tuesday at 2:00a.m.long after you said goodnight

I put the coffee on strong and I bought me some time

The roses you left me were dead on the desk to my right

A subtle reminder that nothing's designed to survive

Love overcome is a battle half-won

The view from both sides of the gun

Well now I'm so afraid to be ready

To change all these locks

To disconnect the dots

And I just can't take the pain

Although make no mistake

Cause it's time I untied all the knots

Cause if there's one thing I know that I'm not

Well that's a ship in the dock

The wind's picking up and I'm looking above for a sign

Your photograph hanging,a moment just clinging to life

But I've seen the top of those trees on the opposite side

And if the grass isn't greener,then I'll know at least that I tried

Cause I won't let myself live in this world of "what if"s

But it don't get much harder than this,oh

I'm so afraid to be ready

To change all these locks

To disconnect the dots

And I just can't take the pain

Although make no mistake

Cause it's time I untied all the knots

Cause if there's one thing I know that I'm not

Well that's a ship in the dock

Oh-h-h-h,oh-h-h-h,oh-h-h yeah

Oh-h,oh-h-h-h-h,oh-h-h oh-h-h

I'm so afraid to be ready

To change all these locks

To disconnect the dots

And I just can't take the pain

Although make no mistake

Cause it's time I untied all the knots

Cause if there's one thing I know that I'm not

Well that's a ship in the dock,oh-h-h-h yeah

I know I'm not ...and that's a ship in the dock
