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 it turns to a fight
And fists fly from my mouth
It turns south, you're down the driveway
And I’m on the couch
Chasing 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 grey,
Trying to 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
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’re passing me by
You’re passing me by, like ships in the night
And 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 a 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’re passing me by
You’re passing me by, like ships in the night
I’m gonna find my way back to your side
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’re passing me by
You’re passing me by, like ships in the night
