Too many years on the road helping rich singers pile up their doh I think that I'm done and I need to be home I've seen you before, subtle glances, locked eyes, nothing more You're the double of me, tired, broken and worn Well I sit at the bar with this glass in my hand Watching you on that stage loving life with your friends And I know I can't stay, you're too much like I've already lost We're like ships in the night Like ships in the night I'm done with these shows for a while now I'm glad to be back in my home She's haunting me here so I'll go alone I've met all my pals in this place and I'm calling them whiskey and wine Watching you dance here's the end of the line Well I sit at the bar with this glass in my hand Watching you on that stage loving life with your friends And I know I can't stay, you're too much like I've already lost And you've always been with me but never quite there Like two ships in the night we don't quite make a pair But some day we might meet in the light when I'm ready to fight We're like ships in the night Like ships in the night
