Ships - Barry Manilow
We walk to the sea
Just my father and me
And the dogs played around
on the sand
Winter cold cut the air
Hangin' still everywhere
Dressed in gray did he say
Hold my hand
I said love's easier
when it's far away
We sat and watched a
distant light
We're two ships that pass
in the night
We both smile and
we say it's alright
We're still here
It's just that
we're out of sight
Like those ships that pass
in the night

There's a boat on the line
Where the sea meets the sky
There's another that
rides far behind
And it seems you and
I are like strangers
A wide ways apart as
we drift on though time
He said it's harder now
we're far away
We only read you
when you write
We're two ships that pass
in the night
And we smile when we say
it's alright
We're still here
It's just that
we're out of sight
Like those ships that pass
in the night
We're just ships that pass
in the night
And we smile when we say
it's alright
We're still here
It's just that
we're out of sight
Like those ships that pass
in the night
We're just ships that pass
in the night
And we smile
when we say it's alright
We're still her
