Marcus Carl Franklin - When The Ship Comes In lyrics
rate meOh, the time will come up<br />
When the winds will stop<br />
And the breeze <br />
Will cease to be breathin'<br />
Like the stillness <br />
In the wind<br />
'Fore the hurricane begins<br />
The hour <br />
When the ship comes in<br />
<br />
Oh, the seas will split<br />
And the ship will hit<br />
And the sands <br />
On the shoreline <br />
Will be shaking<br />
Then the tide will sound<br />
And the wind will pound<br />
And the morning <br />
Will be breaking<br />
<br />
Oh the fishes will laugh<br />
As they swim out of the path<br />
And the seagulls <br />
They'll be smiling<br />
And the rocks on the sand<br />
Will proudly stand<br />
The hour <br />
That the ship comes in<br />
<br />
And the words that are used<br />
For to get the ship confused<br />
Will not be understood <br />
As they're spoken<br />
For the chains of the sea<br />
Will have busted in the night<br />
And will be buried <br />
At the bottom of the ocean<br />
<br />
A song will lift<br />
As the mainsail shifts<br />
And the boat drifts <br />
On to the shoreline<br />
And the sun will respect<br />
Every face on the deck<br />
The hour <br />
That the ship comes in<br />
<br />
Then the sands will roll<br />
Out a carpet of gold<br />
For your weary toes <br />
To be a-touchin'<br />
And the ship's wise men<br />
Will remind you once again<br />
That the whole wide world <br />
Is watchin'<br />
<br />
Oh, the foes will rise<br />
With the sleep <br />
Still in their eyes<br />
And they'll jerk <br />
From their beds<br />
And think they're dreamin'<br />
But they'll pinch themselves<br />
And squeal<br />
And know that it's for real<br />
The hour <br />
When the ship comes in<br />
<br />
Then they'll raise their hands<br />
Sayin' <br />
We'll meet all your demands<br />
But we'll shout from the bow<br />
Your days are numbered<br />
And like Pharaoh's tribe<br />
They'll be drownded in the tide<br />
And like Goliath <br />
They'll be conquered
