I'm looking out the window of this big, big ship
And it's really coming down outside
There's something in her eyes, it's like the morning mist
As it lifts to show the world's still alive

Somebody once told me
"You're gonna know right away
Once you find that secret somebody
To hold for the rest of your days"

She wears a ring already
She's steady in love with another man
And he thinks she's really ready
So why's she keep touching my hand

I'm so terrified and tongue tied
The morning after, will she regret the sweet words she said
It could have been the wine, or just the high of laughter
We shared on the upper decks

The wind blew so coldly
We were swayed in the waves
She looked over, said, hold me
But please don't make no mistake

She said
I wear a ring already
I'm steady in love with another man
I think I'm really ready
But I can't stop touching your hand
