Cruise Ships and Crossroads (Daniel's Version)
[Verse 1] I saw you first near the upper deck You looked surprised, I lost my breath You wore a dress I might have dreamed And time just broke beneath my feet [Verse 2] I tried to smile, you did the same She held my hand, but it didn’t mean What it used to mean when I was sure And you were knocking on my door [Pre-Chorus] We danced once at the midnight bar The air felt thick with old, bright stars [Chorus] (On cruise ships and crossroads, we met again) (Both taken, both pretending, both wondering when) You kissed me like I’d never left And I held you like a second breath Cruise ships and crossroads Hearts adrift [Verse 3] She asked me later what I saw I said, “The girl who made me want it all” She asked if I still loved you now I didn’t lie, I just looked down [Bridge] We stood by the rail, sky on fire You said, “This timing’s always tired” I laughed, I broke, I didn’t speak But I’ve been yours since 1989 [Final Chorus] (On cruise ships and crossroads, we kissed too long) (The kind you keep, even when it’s wrong) I walked away, but left my name In your hands, like nothing changed Cruise ships and crossroads... And I still feel the same [Outro] I still feel the same Cruise ships and crossroads...
