You turned the air lemon,
You turned the air.
Look for those ships
before they disappear,
Look for those ships.
You went to church on a Sunday.
Met with church friends
every single Wednesday
They laid down the law
on how you should live
I said as long as we could
live within the law
You had me fixed to the screen
hours passed, every night us speaking
We made the distance a contagious thing
We'd make the distance....
A year passed and I'd become a salesman
A broken record of how I'd be the best husband.
Forgave you for early infidelity
I'd save us by being so forgiving.
A few months on and we weren't even speaking
Long past the nights where we'd go to sleep speaking
When did the never ending need die? fade away?
You were early days, your wondering eye.
I boxed up everything you gave me.
Like a bitter fool, sent back every memory
devotion too much for my well being
devotion too much.
5 years passed and you confessed you missed me
You were in love, it had always been about me
I tried my best to keep the hostile line.
'Look for those ships before they disappear'
Look for those ships. Look for those ships.
