Til Your Ship Comes in Songtext
von Hamilton Leithauser

You′re kidding me, right?
With that dot in your eye
You went mouthing off to strangers
'Til you picked the wrong guy

Frozen on page one
Of some memory book
Yeah, I know that look
Buried in a purple wash
A Photoshop color collage

But I love you now
And I loved you then
And I′ll love you
'Тil your ship comes in

There's no words left for you, sir
Just spit in your eye
And the spider webs go red
When the cops go by


I loved you then
I loved you then
And I′ll love you
′Til your ship comes in

On the right track
On the right track
Gonna cut you straight
Save a little face


Gonna act your age
Everybody wants you (we call you, we call you)
In a different way (we call you)
We call you by a different name (we call you)
Gonna cut you straight (we call you)
On the right track
On the right track
(We call you by a different name)
(We call you)
I can't tune you out after all we did (we call you)
But it sure can be hard to forgive when you′re like
(We call you by a different name)
Pray for me, old flame
And my chipped up smile
I shiver like a shadow
In your big dark eyes

I love you now
I loved you then
I'll love you
′Тil your ship comes in
