til your ship comes in

Singer:hamilton leithauser

you're kidding me

right?

with that dot in your eye

you went mouthing off to strangers

til you picked the wrong guy

frozen on page one

of some memory book

yeah i know that look

buried in a purple wash

of photoshop collage

but i love you now

and i loved you then

and i'll love you

'til your ship comes in

there's no words left for your sir

just spit in your eye

and the spider webs go red and blue

when the cops go by

i love you now

and i loved you then

and i'll love you

'til your ship comes in

on the right track

on the right track

gonna cut you straight

save a little face

gonna act your age

everybody wants you

in a different way

we call you

by a different name

gonna cut you straight

on the right track

on the right track

i can't tune you out after all we did

but it sure can be hard to forgive

when you're like

pray for me old flame
