lyrics

Inside the midnight ship
The sailors are aroused
Across the channel strip
As fast as time allows
Home from the nightclubs and
affairs about the town
Looking for boats with which
the captain can go down

She rides the midnight ship
the end of every day
She's been with every man
she meets along the way
She's not only pretty
She has got something to say
The lovers and the drunks
are really all the same

Could it be
With the same words you spoke
and the same songs you sung
they may well be just like you are

The elders seen this city's
infancy grow cold
She's been a mother to
commuters young and old
Decay is dignity
Antiquity is bold
Her disappointment
fills the future's pot of gold

Could it be
With the same words you spoke
and the same songs you sung
they may well be just like you are

Inside the midnight ship
the sailors are allowed
to contradict or represent
the average crowd
To be a bore, a compromise,
or be a wow
On top of everything
the message is a vow

Could it be
With the same words you spoke
and the same songs you sung
they may well be just like you are

The lines are long
The ladder is steep
We're piled on
the future's heap

Could it be
With the same words you spoke
and the same songs you sung
they may well be just like you are
