(Brooker Renwick Sinfield)



So many ships have slipped on by in the night

I couldn't keep the score

Until you tied up in the harbour with me

And I prayed we'd share something more

Maybe we both tried just a bit too hard

New loves so close and true

For ten wild days we held a straight flush in hearts

And then I froze on you



Give me something to remember you by

Like a kiss on a cold cold night

Give me something to remember you by

As your ship sinks out of sight



The queen of rubies took the sweet jack of moon

So high above the flood

Though they survived the fall with ice on their wings

The stables ran with blood

Maybe we had too much to win or loose

We'd both been lost before

But that ain't your hear that's an anchor and chain

All those are claw marks across my floor



Give me something to remember you by

Like a knife or a blue steel key

Give me something to remember you by

Like a rose like a storm at sea



Give me something to remember you by

We weren't wrong but we weren't right

Give me something to remember you by

Bye-bye baby, bye-bye
