Gunboat Diplomacy - Embrace Lyrics

Something looms in middle distance
And the future gets nostalgic for what I said it'd be
But I could not foresee

Someone's sleeping in my bed
She turns herself to mist when I awake
And feel this sad, I know she's coming back

So I've got to find a way to ease the troubles in her mind
And the grounds it moves me to her one sigh at a time

How can she reduce me so
A simple mind and all I understand is Stop and Go
Because she told me so

Static clings and interference pierces all her peacefulness
But if her voice grows soft, I'll carry her across

So I've got to find a way to ease the troubles in her mind
Backs herself into a corner but that corner's mine

There's a place, before the light breaks
Where we count our time and say
Prayers for quiet lives
Be at each other's sides

So I've got to find a way to ease the troubles in her mind
And when I stumble through these words she knows it comes from mine
So I've got to find a way to ease the troubles in her mind
She swears it just enough if I can hold her time to time
