Ships - Lamont

Listen, I don’t get you

I wanna get you, am I gonna get to?

You don’t get me

I wanna tell you every time you let me

Guess I’m not clear enough

Or you’re not clear enough

It’s looking like we’re not hearing us

Points of view that aren’t near enough

I don’t wanna do this, but I’ve gotta do this

Said I want you, I’ve gotta prove it

Tell me how do you tick? Sorry, I was cruising

I was on the job snoozing

You don’t wanna kiss me, let me know your history

I get why you wanna diss me

Cause I get flimsy, and I was being ditsy

And I only did what fit me

We speak the same language

Where’s our understanding?

We speak the same language

I don’t understand this

We speak the same language

Where’s our understanding?

I don’t understand this

You and I are just drifting apart

You and I are like ships in the dark

You think I’m not fit for the task

You think I wanna stick to my path

You and I are just drifting apart

You and I are like ships in the dark

You think I’m not fit for the task

You think I wanna stick to my path

We’re drifting apart

Like ships in the dark

Or boats in the night

Look, I don’t wanna fight

I wanna keep hold of the prize

But I can’t if it won’t be alright

Do you think you can show me a sign?

Come close to me, show you my eyes

We speak the same language

Where’s our understanding?

We speak the same language

I don’t understand this

We speak the same language

Where’s our understanding?

We speak the same language

(I don’t understand this)

You wanna see me show that I’m keen

I was here thinking «I know what you mean»

Now you’re there thinking «I don’t wanna meet»

Cause I said a one little show’s on the Beeb

And I’ll watch it later

Now you wanna tell me «don't be a faker»

How you gonna tell me I’m an imitator?

Why on earth are you saying that’s a major?

It’s a minor, you’re twisting my mind up

Fluffy little bits in the grinder

Honey, let me in for a night cuh

Do you think we can find us?

Or can we get a little tighter?

Look, I don’t wanna fight ya, you know that I like ya

I’d pipe up but I doubt light’s enough

I even doubt my love’s quite enough

We speak the same language

Where’s our understanding?

We speak the same language

I don’t understand this

We speak the same language

Where’s our understanding?

We speak the same language

(I don’t understand this)
