Johnny Hartman - Priceless Jazz Collection: Johnny Hartman

My Ship

My ship has sails, that're 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, 'til it appears
One fine day one spring

But the pearls and such
No, they won't mean much
If there's missing just one thing

I do not care if that day arrives
That dream need never, 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
