Kearney, Mat - Ships In The Night Lyrics
Like ships in the night
You keep passing me by
We're just wasting time
Trying to prove who's right
And if it all goes crashing into the sea
Trying to find the light
Like ships in the night letting cannon balls fly
Say what you mean and it turns to a fight
Fist fly from my mouth as it turns south
You're down the driveway, I'm on the couch
Chasing your dreams since the violent 5th grade
Tryna believe in your silent own way
'Cause we'll be OK. I'm not going away
And pops stayed the same and your moms moved away
How many of our parents seem to make it anyway
We're just fumbling through the grey
Trying find a heart that's not walking away
Turn the lights down low
Walk these halls alone
We can feel so far from so close
Like ships in the night
You keep passing me by
We're just wasting time
Trying to prove who's right
And if it all goes crashing into the sea
If it's just you and me
Trying to find the light
Like ships in the night
You're passing me by
You're passing me by
Like ships in the night
And I'm at the airport waiting on a second plane
Had to pack and you had cramps and I was late
Headed to a red carpet they won't know my name
Riding in silence all that we wanna say
About to board when you call on the phone
You say, "I'm sorry. I'll be waiting at home."
Feels like we're learning this out on our own
Tryna find a way down the road we don't know
Turn the lights down low
Walk these halls alone
We can feel so far from so close
Like ships in the night
You keep passing me by
We're just wasting time
Tryna prove who's right
And if it all goes crashing into the sea
If it's just you and me
Trying to find the light
Like ships in the night
You're passing me by
You're passing me by
Like ships in the night
And I'm gonna find my way
Back to your side
And I'm gonna find my way
Back to your side
Like ships in the night
You keep passing me by
We're just wasting time
Trying to prove who's right
And if it all goes crashing into the sea
If it's just you and me
Trying to find the light
Like ships in the night
You're passing me by
You're passing me by
Like ships in the night

You keep passing me by

You're down the driveway... I'm on the couch
Chasing your dreams since the violent 5th grade
Trying to believe in your silent own way
Cause we'll be ok... I'm not going away
Like you watched at fourteen as it went down the drain
And pops stayed the same and your moms moved away
How many of our parents seem to make it anyway
We're just fumbling through the grey
Trying find a heart that's not walking away
Turn the lights down low
Walk these halls alone
We can feel so far from so close
Like ships in the night

Thank you from Germany!
@Consteple Lautermachen yw
I literally lost this song years ago, like at least 5 years ago - and I still know the lyrics <3
The funny thing is, he probably filmed the whole thing in his basement in front of a green screen.
Heard him for the first time yesterday now I'm a new fan
I got my matt care shirt
Ah the work he put into this!! 👏👏👏
Still my favorite music video ever
I heard this song when i was 6 years old, it's still just as good
Probably the most beautiful and happiest music video ever
Can you dig it?
вот что значит любовь
I’m happy my name only only has one T in Mathew
Like the song, hate the video. Don't like him staring into my soul like that
He sounds like Dave Mathews and Chris Martin had a child who listened to pop music and was a good musician
Ships in the night by Matt Kearney. It's a reminder that we are all just trying to find a way to reach out to tell others no matter what we go through God is always there. And Jesus Christ heals and restores us.
This really needs more views
Calmness...Really miss those days...
👇 October 2019
Indeed 🤝
What city is the carousel in? Madison, Wi? Just curious. If so, they moved it.
2012 was a great year, oh the feelings
sucked for me lol
You sound awesome man!!!!!!
I like him so much
That moment when you recognize some of the places in the video because you've actually been there before...
..How sad
THAT awesome song
Reminds me of mary
5 de octubre 2019 😊
Still listening still loving

It takes me back when I was in high school when I first found it and like listen to it all throughout the day. Haha. Now, I remember this song because I have a friend whom I treat as a real brother. We haven’t been talking like we used to do since 5 months ago so we’re like ships in the night that keep passing each other by. I’m hoping for the best and hoping to talk to him ASAP.
This is sweet ♥😘😊
xXxFLOjumper96xXx thanks!
Wow!! Increíble su voz, igual de Chris Martín ❤
Adoro esta misic
This song is a window into my life. Whenever I feel unhappy I can listen to this song for all time. God bless his soul. Music is therapy.
2020 anyone?
Lol from the future? 😅
5 showers brought me here
Super cool song & like ship's I like it
I love this song.....with all of my heart
I need to know you ⛑👑
His voice sounds like that of Coldplay singer Chris Martin in the beginning.
The vocabulary words we think are real interesting to musicians together.
Let’s all appreciate this amazing song
its so fucking awesone dude <3
What a talent .. just found him!! ❤️
I came back to find this song because my teacher would play it in middle school just had a huge wave of nostalgia 😞
Mat Kearney, the former HotDog on a Stick employee?
love it
Makes me sad that no one likes this video
I remember watching this in 2012 when I first became obsessed with this song and with Mat. I was a freshman in high school, and Young Love was my favorite album. I'm now a senior in college and I love him even more.
2k19 anyone???
Do your gestures, to you, have some kind of special meaning other than (to me) rude, forceful, and offensive..?
sound coldplay
Any from August. Love this song.
*Have said? 1 of those "Favorite's" there.*
This is cool this is all in Colorado
like CHIPS in the night
Hey I'm having a hard time.... Please hit me up your music means the world to me
I thought this song was sung by a black guy lol. Dude doesnt sound like a white boy.
First ti.e I heard this was volunteering at a homeless shelter kitchen. They played some christian music channel on the radio. Most the songs I honestly didnt like for whatever reason.
I love this song but 0:25 looks like a greenscreen
Plot twist : He was in front of a green screen the entire time. xD
that would be so funny if it were true haha
Man his voice is unreal good. I love this song. Coldplay has a voice like this God has really blessed these two with stunning voices
Like $hep In The Night🌛 😀🥰🤗
Wen i first her the song I I I literally love this song when my grandpa passed away I was really upset it what made me happy was this song
Anyone wish Mat Kearney and Owl City would tour together again?
7 years later and I still want to hear him sing with Chris Martin from Coldplay. They sound so similar but so different at the same time.
Christian version of coldplay
Good stuff!! Really reminds me of Matisyahu
Omg I remember him!
wheres this place on video??
2019 2020😊
How come this song not crossed 1B?.
HV we really lost taste in real music!
This guy looks so much like my brother it's crazy!
2019🖤
Love this song.. Matt's a good man
although i hate this meme, i don't see it here, twenty nineteen anyone?
Still listening to this, 2019
Lighthouse out
I love to take care of my people its commendable
Well keep the light on for ya love u all
