When My Ship Comes In Lyrics - Singles - Jill Sobule

There's a dim light off the pier 

I've been watchin' it for years 

Through the crashin' waves there's a distant bell 

And it won't stop ringing in my head 

 

All I do is stare and wait 

For her to come and take me far away 

 

When my ship comes in, I'll be happenin' 

After all these years, I'll be happy 

When my ship comes in you'll finally love me 

Then I can leave you when my ship comes in 

 

There's a bitter old man on the shore 

With an albatross tied 'round his throat 

And he tells me to forget that boat 

He rambles on I just get bored

I hear the laughter of the crew 

They know the ropes they'll see me through 

The truth and brighter days 

 

When my ship comes in I won't be lonely 

I'll have lots of friends and they'll all want me 

When my ship comes in, you'll be sorry 

And I'll be something when my ship comes in 

 

I'll be standing at the rail 

Waving you goodbye 

You'll be standing on the beach 

You'll be wondering why 

 

All I do is stare and wait 

For her to come and take me far away 

 

When my ship comes in I might take you 

You could swab the deck if you're nice today 

When my ship comes in we'll be somethin' 

Won't that be something when my ship comes in

When my ship comes in I'll be happenin' 

After all these years I'll be happy 

When my ship comes in you'll finally love me 

Then I can have you when my ship comes in
