THE KOOKS LYRICS - Watching The Ships Roll In

"Watching The Ships Roll In"



Watching the ships roll in

hoping that I will still be his friend

in the morning

Watching those ships roll by

wishing that I could move this earth

if I could

for you I would do



I've got nothing to say

I've got nothing to lay at your feet

I just keep hoping

hope that you will be the man

that I couldn't be



Still watching the oceans move

if only I could show you my soul

and places I've been



Watching the ocean come

and little girls playing in the sand as I walk

longing to listen to you talk



But I've got nothing to say

And I've got nothing to lay at your feet

I just keep hoping

hope that you will be the man

that I couldn't be



I've got nothing to say

And I've got nothing to lay at your feet

I just keep hoping

hope that you will be the man

that I couldn't be
