Ships That Pass

lyrics

The first night that we met we broke contact under an April moon
Just two star-crossed lovers, lost, looking for a little truth
I needed someone back then to haunt
To make lights move and shadows jump

And I'll burn for just the right flame
Unlearn lessons and forget why I came
But I needed a body help clear my mind
I needed something beautiful to destroy before morning arrived

You've got heart, kid
That doesn't mean you have a heart to give
We're troubled lips on troubled lips
The kind that always sink ships
That pass in the night and never seen again

Call it youth, I was a product of the scene
You called it love, I don't think you know what that word means
You needed someone to hold hand with when you jumped
You needed someone to miss you when you're gone
