"Ships In The Night" lyrics

Now wait a minute, just hold on, baby
We mighta broken the seal
This ship's been sinking for so long, baby
It's over, we're bout to keel
As sure as the day turns into the night
When we're on a date it, turns into a fight
We're distant relations, we're ships in the night
This ain't a relationship, nah this is thin ice

Don't wanna ruin this moment
Can't help but feel like our time's running out
You've been a worthy opponent
But I don't feel like another round
Run aground
Let's get out
Cos this ship is going down

It wasn't my intention to pick another fight
It's come to my attention that something isn't right
I'm spreading out the tension, can cut it with a knife
I'm coming to my senses and running for my life
I'm losing my grip, I'm close to the edge
I'm holding my cards up way close to my chest
It's double or nothing, I'm hedging my bets
Cos either one is anyone's guess

Got me walking on egg shells
This ain't gonna end well
When she's crying tears from an endless well
Ring those alarm bells
This might be the death knell
It don't mean a thing that we both meant well

Don't wanna ruin this moment
Can't help but feel like our time's running out
You've been a worthy opponent
But I don't feel like another round
And around
And around...
We've run aground
Before we drown
Let's get out
Cos this ship is going down
