Ships Passing Lyrics by Ilena

Lossless

2021

I don't mean to slight you
I only want you
For more than the afternoon
Do you share this view?
I’d like to unearth you
So scared of a ruse
Last light fades on the roof
Paints you Yves Klein blue
Sometimes my words fail
Talking to you, wit's to no avail
I lose my skin
I record everything
Even if it's not clear
Know I care
Sometimes my words fail
Talking to you, wit’s to no avail
I lose my skin
I record everything
Even if it's not clear
Know I care
Can't see past my insecurities
Security's all I want for you and me
Where did I put the key?
Still, follow me
Even if the door just leads to a dream
I'd like to unearth you
Timing's all wrong, it's true
Last light fades on the roof
Darkens my hopes too
Sometimes my words fail
Talking to you, wit's to no avail
I lose my skin
I record everything
Even if it’s not clear
Know I care
Sometimes my words fail
Talking to you, wit’s to no avail
I lose my skin
I record everything
Even if it's not clear
Know I care
Ships passing in the night
Worlds collide
Briefly bright
Somehow I missed your light
Swam too deep
Didn’t see that
You were in my reach
Still too far out to see
That in the night, you passed me
You were on the beach
There's an island past this sea
We can meet and start again
We can meet and start again
