Ships in the Night

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I am sending you a postcard from the United States With words on the back, never got a chance to say When it soars across that pond and reaches your house May it leave you with closure and a little less doubt [Verse 2] Hope you eased up on the drinking Hope you laugh, hope you care Hope your days are even better than the ones that we shared And I hope that you find love, settle down somewhere new And I hope that this world sees who I see in you [Chorus] I know you tried to reach me, I know you tried I know we felt the same way But the timing wasn't right Ships in the night, ships in the night [Verse 2] Since the last time I saw you, well, I've seen better days The person that I used to be seems so far away And she's not traveling down God's highway, in books, or melodies But maybe in these words is where you will find me [Chorus] I know you tried to reach me, I know you tried I know we felt the same way But the timing wasn't right Ships in the night, ships in the night Ships in the night [Chorus] I know you tried to reach me, I know you tried I know we felt the same way But the timing wasn't right Ships in the night, ships in the night [Outro] From this Arizonan desert to your cold English shores I'm sending you my love, nothing more I'm sending you my love and nothing more
