Ships That Pass In The Night Songtext
von David Essex

You sell your memories across the seven seas
Talking in shadows black
You reach to talk to me
But how can i move to touch you
When my body is far below you
And my spirit moves to get to you

Oooooh those ships that pass in the night
Sail on sweet mysteries fly
Dreams bound by the morning light
So near yet so far from home
Too close to touch and all alone


The burned out bridges of the past
Are still in flames
All battles won and lost
They end to begin again
Your banners fly so high
Into the darkest sky
My spirit moves on up to you

Yeeaah, those ships that pass in the night
Sail on sweet mysteries fly
Dreams bound by the morning light
So near yet so far from home
We′re too close to touch and all alone

So near yet so far away from home
Too close to touch, I'm on my own.
