Lyrics
Refrain
I’m waiting for ships that never come in
Watching and waiting in vain
It seems that Life’s stormy sea holds nothing for me
But broken dreams and shattered schemes
With each day of sorrow, I love to pretend
One more tomorrow and waiting will end
I’m waiting for ships that never come in
I wonder where they can be
Performance
