Paragraph Lyric
(Jack Yellen - Abe Olsen)

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.

--- Instrumental ---

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...
