My Ship

Lyrics for My Ship

My ship has sails that are made of silk The decks are trimmed with gold And of jam and spice There's a paradise in the hold My ship's aglow with a million pearls And rubies fill each bin The sun sits high in a sapphire sky When my ship comes in I can wait the years till it appears One fine day one spring But the pearls and such They don't mean much If there's missing just one thing I do not care if that day arrives That dream need never be If the ship I sing Doesn't also bring My own true love to me
