Lyrics

I met you in your parents’ kitchen, I was fifteen You wore a wetsuit, had flippers on your feet And something in the way you smirked And how you tossed around your words Made me realize that I was meant to be your girl The only thing between, was the guy who I was seeing Refrain: Ships passing in the night Can’t get the timing right Wish there was some way I could know That things will go the way they’re meant to go Two months later I was single, wishing I could turn back time And tell you how I felt, produce some witty line I saw you on the bus one day But I got shy and couldn’t say If you had seen the sparks as well So I just let you walk away The only thing I knew, was there were guys out there like you And somewhere in the world, I hoped I’d find one Refrain How many years have gone by, you look just the same We talk as day turns to night and then back to day Your parents’ house is down the block from the corner where we stopped When fate recast its hook now I don’t need no second look The only thing up our sleeves, was a date with destiny And I only half-believed until you found me Ships meeting in the night This time we got it right And finally I know, some things will go the way they’re meant to go Ships meeting in the night This time we got it right And finally I know, some things will go the way they’re meant to go Some things will go the way they're meant to go
