Courtney Marie Andrews Ships In The Night Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I am sending you a postcard from the United States
With words on the back, never got a chance to say
When it soars across that pond and reaches your house
May it leave you with closure and a little less doubt

[Verse 2]
Hope you eased up on the drinking
Hope you laugh, hope you care
Hope your days are even better than the ones that we shared
And I hope that you find love, settle down somewhere new
And I hope that this world sees who I see in you

[Chorus]
I know you tried to reach me, I know you tried
I know we felt the same way
But the timing wasn't right
Ships in the night, ships in the night

[Verse 2]
Since the last time I saw you, well, I've seen better days The person that I used to be seems so far away
And she's not traveling down God's highway, in books, or melodies
But maybe in these words is where you will find me

[Chorus]
I know you tried to reach me, I know you tried
I know we felt the same way
But the timing wasn't right
Ships in the night, ships in the night
Ships in the night

[Chorus]
I know you tried to reach me, I know you tried
I know we felt the same way
But the timing wasn't right
Ships in the night, ships in the night

[Outro]
From this Arizonan desert to your cold English shores
I'm sending you my love, nothing more
I'm sending you my love and nothing more
