My Ship
Kurt Weill, Ira Gershwin
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
My ship's aglow with a million pearls
And rubies fill each bin
And the sun sits high
In a sapphire sky
When my ship comes in
[Bridge]
I can wait the years
'Til it appears
One fine day, one spring
But the pearls and such
They won't mean much
If there's missing just one thing
[Verse 3]
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 thе ship I sing
Doesn't also bring
My own true love to mе
