Ships Lyrics by Emerson (USA)

Born to make waves

2017

Another Summer goes Falling into Spring
A new year appears in a lightening flash
Don't look back
Piece by piece and line by line
I try to hold it together for at least one more night
I tell myself that we'll be fine tomorrow
But you
Break me down just to build me up again
Another project for your long weekend, and
You'll drive me crazy 'til i try to pretend
I'm a ship in a bottle, a ship in a bottle
The greens and the blues that remind me of you
Are blurred like the lines between cartoons and news
In the paper you read, on your T.V. screen
Am i, just helping you get by?
Break me down just to build me up again
Another project for your long weekend, and
You'll drive me crazy 'til i try to pretend
I'm a ship in a bottle, a ship in a bottle
From the outside, looking in
There's a storm still brewing
I guess these Summer squalls come natural to me
From the outside, looking in
There's a storm still brewing
I guess these Summer squalls come natural to me
So naturally
I draw the blinds and light one up just to put me to sleep
It's days like these
I want no memory of where we went wrong
And I, just wanna float on
Just wanna float on...
So why don't you
Break me down just to build me up again
Another project for your long weekend, and
You'll drive me crazy 'til I try to pretend
I'm a ship in a bottle, a ship in a bottle
