Owl City - Captains and Cruise Ships lyrics

I am stuck in L.A. Through the week and can't get away And you're alone on the pier In West Palm Beach on your holiday. Stormy nights re-awake The stomachache that I've acquired From feeling down; things look grim And I'm so sick of being tired. Apartment lights go dark And it's depressing, but what can I do? The midnight streets feel dead When I am so used to driving with you. Brighter lights fill the night And bluer skies reflect in your eyes As I inspect and an*lyze All of these dreams I don't recognize. If you're still up when the ships In the port prepare to set sail, Comb the beach and put those blue Flowers up in your ponytail Inside my head, your voice Is still resounding, but what can I do? The empty rooms feel cold When I am so used to being with you. Count the stars, watch the waves Absorb the summer sun and think of me When you explore hidden coves And tiny island chains throughout the sea. Can you still hear my voice When I'm outside from over the phone? For what it's worth, darling dear, I wish you were here, 'cause I feel alone. When you were home, we'd sing, But since you've left, I don't hear anything. And though I feel so sad, I can't believe things are really that bad. Old captains and brand new cruise ships Sailing over the briny sea. When I crash my beloved desk job And swim through the debris, I'll cut loose and leave this madhouse, Bound for the Atlantic blue. I'll stroll down your tree-lined driveway And sail the ocean with you.
