《Ships That Don’t Come In(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:01] Ships That Don't Come In - Joe Diffie

[00:00:16] I could tell he'd had a tough life

[00:00:20] By the way he sat and stared

[00:00:25] And me I'd come to push and shove

[00:00:28] So I pulled up a chair

[00:00:32] We talked of roads untraveled

[00:00:36] We talked of love untrue

[00:00:40] Of strings that come unraveled

[00:00:44] We were kings and kindred fools

[00:00:49] And just when I'd hit bottom

[00:00:53] That old man raised his glass

[00:00:56] And said at least we had our chances

[00:01:01] There's those who never have

[00:01:05] So here's to all the soldiers

[00:01:09] Who have ever died in vain

[00:01:13] The insane locked up in themselves

[00:01:17] The homeless down on Main

[00:01:21] To those who stand on empty shores

[00:01:25] And spit against the wind

[00:01:29] And those who wait forever

[00:01:33] For ships that don't come in

[00:01:43] He said it's only life's illusions

[00:01:47] That bring us to this bar

[00:01:51] To pick up these old crutches

[00:01:55] And compare each other's scars

[00:01:59] 'Cause the things we're calling heartache

[00:02:04] Hell they're hardly worth our time

[00:02:08] We bitch about a dollar

[00:02:11] When there's those without a dime

[00:02:15] And as he ordered one last round

[00:02:19] He said I guess we can't complain

[00:02:24] God made life a gamble

[00:02:28] And we're still in the game

[00:02:32] So here's to all the soldiers

[00:02:36] Who have ever died in vain

[00:02:40] The insane locked up in themselves

[00:02:44] The homeless down on Main

[00:02:48] To those who stand on empty shores

[00:02:52] And spit against the wind

[00:02:56] And those who wait forever

[00:03:00] For ships that don't come in

[00:03:06] And those who wait forever

[00:03:12] For ships that don't come in
