Until My Ship Comes In

Dum Dums

Loneliness, plays its wicked game with me


Maybe I'll be saved, but I have nothing to believe


With no-one in my arms, underneath a quiet sky


And nothing in my heart, a nothing symphony





The lonely people sail the sea


There'll be a storm inside of me


Until my ship comes in


All I have is what I am


On this island I will roam


Until my ship comes in





The radio, plays the same six songs a day


Automatic words, cruel and comforting to me


Everything is bleak, people-less, hollow and concrete


Staring at the sea, but my thoughts are far from me





The lonely people sail the sea


There'll be a storm inside of me


Until my ship comes in


All I have is what I am


On this island I will roam


Until my ship comes in





I was giving it a little more time


I was giving it a little more time


I was giving it a little more time


But things don't seem to be getting better





The lonely people sail the sea


There'll be a storm inside of me


Until my ship comes in


All I have is what I am


On this island I will roam


Until my ship comes in
