My Ship Lyrics

My ship has sails
That are made of silk
The decks are trimmed with gold
And of jam and apice
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 ships come in

I can't wait the years
Till it appears
One fine day, one Spring
But the pearls and such
They won't mean much
If there's missing just

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
My own true love to me

If the ship I sing
Doesn't also bring
My own true love to me
