Ship of Fools

by Harry Manx & Kevin Breit

on In Good We Trust (2007)

Meet you in a shadow after dark
There we're gonna weave the seasons
You can waltz to the tune of your own heart
What makes you happy needs no reason

Taste tomorrow as the rains come down
You and I always slipped away, but I
Heard a song on the radio growing dark about all the
About the hard times coming down today on the ship of fools
Oh ship of fools
Ship of fools
Don't know nothing 'bout love

A dog howls, to the laugh of a saxophone
The road is long with a heart made of stone, but
Madmen are chasing fear and schemes, here they
Loaded up their guns with delusions and dreams
On a ship of fools
Oh on a Ship of fools
Whoa that's where we are
Don't know nothing 'bout love
Oh oh no

That's my love painted on the wall
Drawn in darkness, I recall, but the
The rains came early to that good nigh
Laughing blue eyes, all in spite of the ship of fools
Oh on a Ship of fools
That's what we are ship of fools
Don't know nothing 'bout love
Oh oh ship of fools
Oh that's what we are
Ship of fools
