Owl City:Captains and Cruise Ships
From LyricWiki
| This song is performed by Owl City and appears on the album Of June (2007). |
I am stuck in L.A.
Through the week and can't get away
And you're alone on the pier
In West Palm Beach on your holiday
Stormy nights re-awake
The stomach ache that I've acquired
From feeling down, things look grim
And I'm so sick of being tired
Apartment lights go dark
And its depressing but what can I do?
The midnight streets feel dead
When I am so used to driving with you
Brighter lights fill the night
And bluer skies reflect in your eyes
As I inspect and analyze
All of these dreams I don't recognize
If you're still up when the ships
In the port prepare to set sail
Comb the beach and put those blue
Flowers up in your ponytail
Inside my head your voice
Is still resounding but what can i do?
The empty rooms feel cold
When I am so used to being with you
Count the stars, watch the waves
Absorb the summer sun and think of me
When you explore hidden coves
And tiny island chains throughout the sea
Can you still hear my voice
When I'm outside from over the phone
For what its worth darling dear
I wish you were here 'cause I feel alone
When you were home we'd sing
But since you've left I don't hear anything
Though I feel so sad
I can't believe things are really that bad
Old captains and brand new cruise ships
Sailing over the briny sea
When I crash my beloved desk job
And swim through the debris
Ill cut loose and leave this mad house
Bound for the Atlantic blue
Ill stroll down your tree lined driveway
And sail the ocean with you
Through the week and can't get away
And you're alone on the pier
In West Palm Beach on your holiday
Stormy nights re-awake
The stomach ache that I've acquired
From feeling down, things look grim
And I'm so sick of being tired
Apartment lights go dark
And its depressing but what can I do?
The midnight streets feel dead
When I am so used to driving with you
Brighter lights fill the night
And bluer skies reflect in your eyes
As I inspect and analyze
All of these dreams I don't recognize
If you're still up when the ships
In the port prepare to set sail
Comb the beach and put those blue
Flowers up in your ponytail
Inside my head your voice
Is still resounding but what can i do?
The empty rooms feel cold
When I am so used to being with you
Count the stars, watch the waves
Absorb the summer sun and think of me
When you explore hidden coves
And tiny island chains throughout the sea
Can you still hear my voice
When I'm outside from over the phone
For what its worth darling dear
I wish you were here 'cause I feel alone
When you were home we'd sing
But since you've left I don't hear anything
Though I feel so sad
I can't believe things are really that bad
Old captains and brand new cruise ships
Sailing over the briny sea
When I crash my beloved desk job
And swim through the debris
Ill cut loose and leave this mad house
Bound for the Atlantic blue
Ill stroll down your tree lined driveway
And sail the ocean with you
