Bobby Troup - My Ship lyrics

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 If the ship I sing doesn't also bring my own true love to me
