SHIP
Oceans deep ? Drifting as you sleep ? Up on the
Eternal sea ? A ship sails
When your ship comes in ? Will you be ready to
Sail with the tide ? And when your ship comes in
Will it be a galley full of slaves ? Or a sun streaked
Schooner
You came so far ? Between the rocks and shoals
In the blinding night ? A may day
When your ship comes in ? Will you step on board
With a smile ? Or will they have to pressgang you
Will the flag that flies in the wind ? Say friend or foe
Will you know ? Or bear the mark of a pirate bold
With a treasure chest full of fool's gold ? Fool's gold
When your ship comes in ? Don't try to pack your
Case with hopes and dreams ? It's all behind you
Now ? This ain't no Sunday cruise this time you
Don't choose your destination ? And will a silent
Wave carry you away ? Or will the storm crash down
So cold ? I spent a lot of fool's gold ? Fool's gold
Will you be ready when your ship comes in ? When
Your ship comes in ? Will you be ready to sail with
The tide ? When your ship comes in ? Will you be
Ready when your ship comes in ? When your ship
Comes in ? Will you be ready to sail with a smile
When your ship comes in
