We walked to the sea
|
Just my father and me
|
And the dogs played around on the sand
|
Winter cold cut the air
|
Hangin' still everywhere
|
Dressed in gray, did he say
|
Hold my hand
|
I said, love's easier when it's far away
|
We sat and watched a distant light
|
We're two ships that pass in the night
|
We both smile and we say it's alright
|
We're still here
|
It's just that we're out of sight
|
Like those ships that pass in the night
|
There's a boat on the line
|
Where the sea meets the sky
|
There's 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, it's harder now, we're far away
|
We only read you when you write
|
We're two ships that pass in the night
|
And we smile when we say it's alright
|
We're still here
|
It's just that we're out of sight
|
Like those ships that pass in the night
|
We're just ships that pass in the night
|
And we smile when we say it's alright
|
We're still here
|
It's just that we're out of sight
|
Like those ships that pass in the night
|
We're just two ships that pass in the night
|
And we smile when we say it's alright
|
We're still here
|
It's just that we're out of sight
|
