lyrics

Another day has come and another day's gone
and it feels like... just like any other
I'm stressed, I'm tired, I'm bored, and I'm boarding the 2 train
and I'm silent, just like any other

Then the calendar reminds me
of the time of year
How I loved you on your birthday
and you held me dear
I know it's two years and counting
but I can't forget
Now I feel my body's sinkin'
and it won't relent

My heart is a ship
and it's slow to change course
It's not easy moving on
when all the wind has gone
My heart is a ship
and it's run aground once or twice
It takes time to dig it out
You'd think I'd figure it out

Now I'm searching through the mist
but you're long gone
You've already found
your covenantal lover

With a smile I've never seen
and a ring on your hand
It's all I can do
to keep from going under

I'm tryin' I'm tryin' I'm tryin'
to find my way
I've offered my affections
in the light of day
but none of my endeavors
make it through the night
and I'm haunted by the memory
of you by my side

My heart is a ship
and it's slow to change course
It's not easy sailing on
when all the wind has gone
My heart is a ship
and it's run aground once or twice
It takes time to dig it out
You'd think I'd figured it out

My heart is a ship
and it's slow to change course
It's not easy sailing on
when all the wind has gone
My heart is a ship
and it's run aground once or twice
It's not easy digging out
You'd think I'd figured it out
