When the willow bends towards the end of day

And twilight falls again

To the funny sound that a blackbird makes

Twilight falls again

As no good reason remains, I'll do the same

Thinking of you

One day a ship comes in, one day a ship comes in

But I can't say how or when

But I know somewhere the ship comes in every day

There is no morphine, I'm only sleeping

There is no crime to dreams like this

And if you could take something with you

It would be right

Something good

From my fingertips, the cigarette throws ashes to the ground

I'd stop and talk to the girls who work this street, but I got business farther down

Like one long season of rain, I will remain

Thinking of you

One day a ship comes in

From far away a ship comes in

One hundred days you wait for it

And you know somewhere the ship comes in every day

There is no morphine, I'm only sleeping

There is no crime to dreams like this

And if you could take something with you

It would be bright

Just like something good

One day a ship comes in

One hundred days you wait for it

Something bright

Something so good

One hundred days

A ship comes in every day

You know it's good

You know it's good

A ship comes in every day

One day a ship comes in

Its good

When it's something good
