That ship held dreams, that ship held dreams
When it sank it took a piece of me
Goodbye letters of love, goodbye winter gloves
Goodbye song of mourning dove
Life's a bitch or so they say
It was hard just walking away
Life's a bitch or so they say
It was hard just walking away
Unforgettable was her name, Oh those unforgettable days
It's an old cliche, it's an old cliche
The sun will shine on your door someday
Life's a bitch or so they say
It was hard just walking away
Life's a bitch or so they say
It was hard just walking away
Grab a bucket and a rope, a bucket and a rope
Toothbrush and a bar of soap
We're leaving town, that ship's going down
Whatever floats is in the Thames by now
Life's a bitch or so they say
It was hard just walking away
Life's a bitch or so they say
It was hard just walking away
