Ships in the Night - Jack Bruce

Ships in the night

Searching for day

Beckoning lips

So far away

Shadows adrift

Hiding from light

Ships in the night

Sometimes you feel

Then again you can’t

Morning comes down

Soon after the dance

Time slowly drowns

Streets so unreal

Needing to heal

Harbours of love

Shining so calm

Far beyond pain

Outside of harm

Why must we move

Into the rain

Again …

Ships in the night

Riding the waves

Yesterday slips

Into the haze

Memories ripped

Sliding from sight

Ships in the night

Maybe you win

Maybe you lose

Future seems like

Just another ruse

Sirens invite

Us to begin

Come right on in Harbours of love

Shining so calm

Far beyond pain

Outside of harm

Why must we move

Out of the sun

Into the rain

Again …
