I sat by the ocean And drank a potion, baby to erase you Face down in the Boulevard, yet I couldn't face you There ain't no use in crying It doesn't change anything So baby what good does it do? Your friends, they all sympathize Maybe, I don't need them too Imagine I'd be your one and only Instead I'm the lonely one You, me and a lie Silence is closer We're passing ships in the night There's nowhere to run away Said "Boy if you want love, you'll have to go and find it with someone new" "Do you know who you really are? Are you sure it's really you?" Lies are a funny thing They slip through your fingertips because they never happened to you Time wounds all the heals as we fade out of view Imagine I'd be your one and only Instead I'm the lonely one You, me and a lie Silence is closer We're passing ships in the night You, me and a lie Silence is closer We're passing ships in the night Into the night Left with nowhere to hide Closer and closer We're crashing ships in the night
