My Ship - Tavares

My my my my ship

Is coming in

And you’re the only thing that ain’t on it

My my my my ship

Is docking now

But I don’t see you waving from the bow

No

Well I got myself a steady job

And I’ve earned everybody’s respect

Moving up higher up

There’s a beauty that I got to protect

I’ve been saving every penny I can (that I can)

And I’m working a promise (yes I am)

But I won’t be complete

Til I’m reaching for a feminine hand

I keep on trying to tell you girl

My my my my ship

Is coming in

And you’re the only thing that ain’t on it

My my my my ship

Is docking now

But I don’t see you waving from the bow

I got everything I need but you

What’s a man in my position to do?

Got a hold that was built

And designed for occupation for two

Brand new

I can listen to my CD you know

I can drive my car where I want to go

A material thing can be bought if you got money to blow

But money won’t be devotion

My my my my ship

Is coming in

And you’re the only thing that ain’t on it

My my my my ship

Is docking now

But I don’t see you waving from the bow

Getting much closer to

The man I want to be (can't you see I’m changing)

But all this money see

Is only making me sad and lonely (so sad, so sad and lonely)

My my my my ship

Is coming in

And you’re the only thing that ain’t on it

My my my my ship

Is docking now

But I don’t see you waving from the bow

No

My my my my ship

Is coming in

And you’re the only thing that ain’t on it

My my my my ship

Is docking now

But I don’t see you waving from the bow

My my my my ship

Is coming in

And you’re the only thing that ain’t on it

My my my my ship

Is docking now

But I don’t see you waving from the bow
