My Ship

[Strophe I:]
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 a glow 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
Til it appears
One fine day, one spring
But the pearls an such
They won't mean much
If there's missing just one thing
Do not care if that day arrives
That dream need never be

[Chorus:][x2]
If the ship i sing
Doesn't also bring
My own true love to me
