Lyrics This Ship Has Sailed - Alberto Pizzo, David Knopfler, Martin Ditcham

This Ship Has Sailed

What am I supposed to do
Feeling so in love with you
How will I make it alone through the night?
What am I supposed to say
And would it matter anyway?
Credits roll
We straggle alone to the light
This ship has sailed like a thief in the night
This ship has sailed and the stars are shining bright
This ship has sailed, sailed clear out of sight
This ship has sailed, sailed clear out of sight
This ship has sailed away without a prayer to pray
And we’re alone again tonight
This ship has sailed
A stolen wallet and a nervous hat
Another solder with his useless chat
He’s still dreaming that is where it’s at
You gaz
Another soldier who would smoke your ass
Anothr furlough with a dirty pass
We all must travel strictly second-class these days
This ship has sailed like a thief in the night
This ship has sailed and the stars are shining bright
