lyrics

A thousand boats out on the ocean
Every one is like a fire in the sunlight
Are you in the hold?
Would you be so bold as to signal to the shore?

Flashing tail lights on the freeway
Every one is like a star in the ether
Looking through the glass, every car I pass
Have you seen me on the phone?

Carve it on the door
All it takes is time
Give me half of yours
I’ll give you half of mine
If I could only find you

A thousand trains across the nation
Every one is someone leaving someone
Did you get your tea? Have you found your seat?
And can I help you with your coat?

Cause I can feel your body burning
Even from a thousand miles away
Wishing on a star, sleeping in your car
and if you find a place to stay

Carve it on the door
All it takes is time
Give me half of yours
I’ll give you half of mine
If I could only find you

So let me be your lost companion
You could be my summer constellation.
