Zen Bester - Sailing By

At the docks again
Now it's every day
Watching cargo ships
Hoping one pulls in the bay

Carrying treasure chests
Full of things I've never seen
Like happiness, as well as hopes and dreams

But it never has and it never will it seems
Cause all the ships that you ever see

Are just sailing by
Are just sailing by
They're just sailing by
They're just sailing by

Washed up evidence
Of some better times
You try to anchor them
So they don't just float in your mind
But they're pulled away
Taken by the tide
And just like the ships
The brief moments of peace you find

Are just sailing by
They're just sailing by
They're just sailing by
They're just sailing by

Are just sailing by
Are just sailing by
They're just sailing by

They're just sailing by
They're just sailing by
They're just sailing by
They're just sailing by

They're just sailing by
They're just sailing by

They're just sailing by
