A Tight Ship lyrics - David Gray

The better then

To know myself

That fear be damned

And love be wealth

To sing it like

A mountain stream

To dance like no-one sees

That blinked an eye

That flashed a smile

But missed it by

A country mile

Now sleek to dive

In mirrored pools

And dance like no-one sees

So seize the day

Yeah aim it true

We'll live the way

That lovers do

We'll go defenceless

Open wide

We'll let the senses

Be our guide

We'll break the surface

Snip these strings

Relearn the grace

Of selfless things

We'll dance like no-one sees

Dance like no-one sees

We'll dance like no-one sees

Now sleek to dive in mirrored pools

So sleek to dive in mirrored pools

In mirrored pools so sleek to dive

To kiss the face

To snip the strings

Relearn the grace

Of selfless things

Then sleek to dive

(Tonight we dance like no-one sees us)

So sleek to dive

And sleek to dive

(Tonight we dance like no-one sees us)

So sleek to dive

Then sleek to dive

(Tonight we dance like no-one sees)
