Last Ferry Out

V6

[Intro - Piano] [Verse 1 - Male] Ticket in my teeth and gravel in my shoes Fog sat on the water like it had nothing to lose I told you I'd be early, I was early twice before Now the ramp is going up and I'm still counting from the shore [Verse 2 - Female] I kept your coat in the passenger seat It held you for a while, then it learned the cold You always said the tide would wait for no one Funny how it waited till you finally let go [Pre-Chorus - Both] Horn on the harbor, lights on the hill Half of us leaving, half standing still [Chorus - Both] Last ferry out, and we're both on the wrong side Last ferry out, and the water's a mile wide Say it now or say it never Some boats don't come back for anybody [Verse 3 - Male] I sold the truck in April, kept the keys out of spite Still drive past your mother's when she leaves the porch light on I could swim it if I had to, I'm a fool but not a liar I'm just waiting for a reason that's a little bit higher [Bridge - Female] Don't you swim it Don't you dare I've been on this deck all night And I'm already there [Key Change] [Final Chorus - Both, belted] Last ferry out, and we're both on the right side Last ferry out, and the water's not that wide Say it now, there's no never Some boats come back for somebody [Outro - Piano]
