Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] The rain is tapping on the glass Watching all the shadows pass Pull up a chair, pour a drink Give us both some time to think I’m thinking of a midnight boat Where we kept our dreams afloat [Pre-Chorus] The upright bass begins to walk It’s much too quiet here to talk But every note is like a sign Of a life I left behind [Chorus] Oh, that ferry ride With the rising tide We were side by side Nowhere left to hide Just a stranger’s smile For a little while In a perfect style [Post-Chorus] Lost in the blue Finding the new Just me and you Passing on through [Verse] The harbor mist was turning grey I saw a ghost from yesterday Leaning on the cold iron rail Watching for a phantom sail You had a light within your eyes Underneath those heavy skies [Hook] Midnight on the river Felt a little shiver Love was the deliver Arrow from a quiver [Bridge] The engine hummed a low D-flat We talked of this and talked of that No past to haunt, no future plan Just a woman and a man Lost inside a silver haze In a soft and rhythmic maze [Verse] We shared a match to light the dark Waiting for a tiny spark The water slapped against the hull The conversation never dull An hour felt like twenty years Drowning out our silent fears [Chorus] Oh, that ferry ride With the rising tide We were side by side Nowhere left to hide Just a stranger’s smile For a little while In a perfect style [Breakdown] Brushed drums on the floor Who could ask for more? Open up the door To the golden shore [Verse] The dock appeared through salty air You smoothed your messy, tangled hair We walked away in separate ways Back into the city maze But in this bar, I feel the chill Of the water standing still [Outro]
