Stanley Turrentine
my ship 2005 digital remaster
Select language to translate this lyric
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 aglow 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
till it appears
one fine day one spring
but the pearls and such
they won't mean much
if there's missing just one thing:
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
