Watching The Ship Go Down
by Ideola

Album: Tribal Opera


Verse 1
Take each other for granted
It's only love we tell ourselves
It's only emotion
Untamed as any ocean
With the wind at our backs
And time on our side
Breakers crashing on rocks
We assume that we'll survive

Chorus
Watching the ship go down (in the water)
Watching the ship go down (in the sea)
Watching the ship go down (in the water)
Carrying you and carrying me

Verse 2
Paradise is a black sky
Invisible horizons
The lighthouse is speaking
It stutters with a sleepy beacon
Dreaming separate dreams
Dreading separate dreads
We're adrift in the stream
Heeding sirens in our heads

Chorus
Watching the ship go down (in the water)
Watching the ship go down (in the sea)
Watching the ship go down (in the water)
Carrying you and carrying me

Instrumental break

Chorus
Watching the ship go down (in the water)
Watching the ship go down (in the sea)
Watching the ship go down (in the water)
Carrying you and carrying me

Watching the ship go down (in the water)
Watching the ship go down (in the sea)
Watching the ship go down (in the water)
Carrying you and carrying me

Outro
Watching the ship go down (in the water)
Watching the ship go down (in the sea)
Watching the ship go down (in the water)
Watching the ship go down (in the sea)
Watching the ship go down (in the water)
Watching the ship go down (in the sea)
