Ships

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
