When My Ship Came Back to Shore

[Verse 1]
My lover's gone away
He didn't take much when he went
Just a suitcase and some change
And the years we might have spent
And it doesn't matter how I cry
Or say that he didn't try

[Chorus]
When my ship came back to shore
He didn't love me anymore

[Verse 2]
My heart is broken, my pride is gone
I put my arms around me tight, try to hold on
I ask questions but no answers come
This situation, you know it's wrong, it's wrong
And I said, "You know I wanna try to make a change
Make things right"

[Chorus]
But when my ship came back to shore
He didn't love me anymore

But when my ship came back to shore
He didn't love me anymore

[Verse 3]
And I know that friends are gonna talk
And some will say he isn't worth a damn
And I know he said he had to go
But, Lord, I wish he'd come back again
Take me in his arms and everything's okay
And love away all my pain

[Chorus]
When my ship came back to shore
He didn't love me anymore
He didn't love me anymore
