I forgot how much amazingness this song is. The way he puts such upbeat instrumentals to such a sad song … gahhhh. These two ships come into each other’s lives for a short intense moment, then disappear off into the night. Although it’s not always the intention, you never see each other again. The ocean is a big place and it’s not impossible but very unlikely two ships will ever pass each other again. But if and when they do and both parties are willing, like the end of the song shows, it’ll work out.
“Turn the lights down low
Walk these halls alone
We can feel so far from so close
Like ships in the night
You keep passing me by
We’re just wasting time
Trying to prove who’s right
And if it all goes crashing into the sea
If it’s just you and me trying to find the light
Like ships in the night
You’re passing me by”
