Seeing you around
Once or twice
When they read straight from the scripts

We were too polite
Ill-equipped
For pretty sights
We're just ships
Passing in the night

Saw in a moment of eclipse
You avert your eyes
Until I'm out of sight
Say what etiquette permits
?
Passing in the night

So we remain tight-lipped
Lips unsatisfied
Fantasies untried
It seems romance has us gypped
Strangers but not quite
Passing in the night
