Testo My Ship

Testo My Ship

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
