Tall Ships

You stand, I sit, on the seawall steps Smoking our smiles Right through our regrets Watching tall ships cloud the view With a cheer from the crowd And a wave from the crew The lines between the lines are ruled like Tall ships passing cloud the view I spy you through smoke, between my smiles Like birds that course all vectorstyle I can't believe I'm giving in I'm still set to listening What gives, who wins I'm still set to summerflings I can't believe I'm giving in What a stupid thing to dream you did To trade forgiving for disinterested The truth is you and I have brittle spines And we revealed different things When we spoke our lines We walked so slow through the August clutch Not looking up, not saying much The laughing kids that hold the park Ask for a match, and I see you spark Instead of seeing me, you see right through me I just say it to myself these days I just fight when you turn away I just talk to your back these days We both smile when you're turned away I just say it to myself these days I just fight when you turn away I just talk to your back these days We both smile when you're turned away I just say it to myself these days
