Big Ships by Tim Barry Lyrics

No one told me if I'd be lonely or be at peace by now
Or head o'er heel, alive or dead, or just getting by somehow
Got a backyard full of curing wood and change for dollar bills
Or habits that ain't fit for no living man to sell
Been everywhere just barely and always gave my best
And I'll keep your secrets til I'm three sheets to the wind
A lonely road I have walked and walked it none the less
The biggest ships turn slowly and some are made to drift

Big Ships turn slow, stop and take a rest
Let the others pass by, somе are made to drift
La la la, hey hеy hey
I'm just trying float through another day

This silence is beautiful and where I like it best
Here your greatest enemy could one day be your friend
Got a window full of plastic flowers, a chair and a desk
And hold the way of giving in to expectation
Yeah I could write back somehow and say it's okay
But I'm better at turning off for days and days and days
And it ain't the years that aged me it's the miles on this sea
Ain't no one to blame but me
Big Ships turn slow, stop and take a rest
Let the others pass by, some are made to drift
La la la, hey hey hey
I'm just trying float through another day

There ain't no one to blame but me
