jill sobule - when my ship comes in (2025) lyrics

Loading...

[jill, spoken]
one, two, three

[jill]
there’s a dim light off the pier
and i’ve been watching it for years
through the crashing waves there’s a distant bell
won’t stop ringing in my head
all i do is stare and wait
for her to come and take me far away

[jill & band]
well, when my ship comes in i’ll be happening
after all these years i’ll be happening
when my ship comes in, finally love me

[jill]
then i can leave you when my ship comes in, yeah

there’s a little lost girl on the shore
not sure of what she’s looking for
a siren takes her trembling hand
says, “i’ll take you to the promised land”

[jill & band]
i hear the laughter of the crew
they know the ropes, they’ll see me through
the truth and brighter days
well, when my ship comes in i won’t be lonely
after all these years i’ll be happening
when my ship comes in, finally love me

[jill]
then i can leave you when my ship comes in

[jill & band]
i’ll be standing at the rail
waving you goodbye
you’ll be standing on the beach
you’ll be wondering why

[jill]
oh yeah

[jill & band]
when my ship comes in i’ll be happening
after all these years i’ll be happening
when my ship comes in, finally love me

[jill]
then i can leave you when my ship comes in

[jill & band]
ship comes in, i’ll be happening
after all these years i’ll be happening
when my ship comes in, finally love me
[jill]
then i’ll never leave you when my ship comes in

[jill, spoken]
never gonna leave you
i’m never gonna leave you, no, no
