Kurt Weill - I Wish It So

My Ship

My ship has sails that are made of silk,
The decks are trimmed with gold,
And of jam spice there's a paradise in the hold,
My ship's a glow with a million pearls
And rubbies fill each bin,
The sun sits high in a sapphire sky when my ship comes in
I can wait the year 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 thou day arrives,
That dream needs never be
If the ship I sing doesn't also bring my own
true love to me
If the ship I sing doesn't bring my own true love to me.
