Just like ships floating through the night
We lead our lives completely out of sight
Head towards the flashing lights
We watch them turn, they synchronise
Seasons change and the days will last
Just as long as the shadows they cast
When evening’s near we’ll watch the pier
Light up the sky like tears on fire
Close your eyes
You can change the times of the tide
Don’t need daylight
To navigate to what I feel inside
In the shadows
In the shadows
In the shadows
In the shadows of the night
Sunrise, sunrise, bare your head
It’s time to turn the lights off again
Gone are the fires and the distant glows
But they’ll be back same time tomorrow
Close your eyes
You can change the times of the tide
Don’t need daylight
To navigate to what I feel inside
In the shadows
In the shadows
In the shadows
In the shadows of the night
Just like ships floating out of sight
Just like ships floating out of sight
Just like ships floating out of sight
Just like ships floating out of sight
