Sink Ships Lyrics - Cardinology - Ryan Adams

Sunlight falls on your hands 

As you type, 

Well just something in my head 

Standing in this empty space 

Your desk is gone 

But the wall's still dark from where it went 

The position is not open now, for applicants 

The application forms got shredded, 

There was faulty wording in the documents 

I can still hear you laughing 

Coming up them rickety stairs 

Laughing as the springtime 

Filled your lungs with air 

Spare notes rung out 

Like the patches of your hair 

Like violets 

Like birds inside the bells

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

A gray ghost prowls 

In the back of my mind 

While the sun is out 

(No its still up and the light is shining) 

Its seasons push and pull enough to get us 

Through well but my mind is open now, 

No more than a door is open to an empty room 

The position is not open now, for applicants 

The application forms got shredded, 

There was faulty wording in the documents 

I can still hear you laughing 

Coming up them rickety stairs 

Laughing as the springtime 

Filled your lungs with air 

Spare notes rung out 

Like the patches of your hair 

Like violets 

Like birds inside the bells

If somehow, I'd have known, I'd have rather gone 

Down with the ship than be with out, 

If only for the chance, to hold your hand, 

To be your friend 

I never got a last time, I would've rather gone 

Down, than this 

The war is over 

The war is over 

The war is over, and I am wading 

In the sinking ships 

If only I'd have known 

If only I'd have known
