Ships Lyrics - Singles - Loveless Patty

==================================================================== 

===== 

Eddie had a few days comin' 

So he took a Las Vegas jaunt 

Out to the land of supply and demand 

Where you can get anything you want 

He wasn't lookin' for true love 

No, he didn't believe in that stuff 

Eddie LeGrande was a hard workin' man 

Who just needed a little good luck 

His shoes were a little worn 

His hair was a little thin 

Just another old sailor 

Waitin' on his ship to come in 

Lily was a two time loser 

Who said that love was just a roll of the dice 

She acted real tough, said once ain't enough 

For me I learned my lesson twice 

But deep in her heart lived a young girl 

Dreamin' a young girl's dream 

And that young girl was who Eddie ran into 

Over by the slot machines 

Her face was a little pale 

Her dress was a little thin 

Oh but lookin' at her was like 

Watchin' his ship come in 

Well, he bought her a cup of coffee 

With the quarters he meant to play 

They went for a bite and they talked all night 

'Til they said what they needed to say 

Then they found 'em an all night chapel 

With a heart shaped honeymoon suite 

And somewhere tonight in the neon light 

Two hearts can't be beat 

And he's singin' a little song 

She's grinnin' a little grin 

And they're holdin' each other 

Watchin' their ship to come in 

Her face was a little pale 

His hair was a little thin 

But they're two young lovers 

Watchin' their ship to come in 

Just holdin' each other 

Watchin' their ship to come in
