The Ships Video (MV)

I went down into the ships
Back to where I thought we'd met
Watching over white-capped seas

Hiding from my blackened eyes
Sorrows born of broken lines
Carried on in my regret

Sometimes I forget

Songs would wash away beneath
Drifting on the undertow
Far away from you and me
Hoping they would reach the ears
Of someone to answer our prayers
Just to grant us some relief
On aching beams
Given up to dreams

Won't you carry me down
Into the night
The words so easily fall apart
Beneath the lights

We will wash the open wounds
Water stealing back the blood
From the mouth of the hold

Underneath the hidden stars
The moon withholding its remorse
At waves unfurling their pulse
Against the weight
Of memories washed away

Won't you carry me down
Into the night
The words so easily fall apart
Beneath the lights
Won't you undo the veils
Of my eyes
The water comes to carry me on
Into the night

I went down into the ships
Back to where I thought we'd met
Watching over white-capped seas

Sometimes I forget
