Level 42 - Ship lyrics

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
