Ship - Level 42

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
