From the recording The Order of Things
Lyrics
The ship is coming in
Sailing through the harbor
We all know where she’s been
They weren’t tranquil waters
It comes and end
The sailors blame the weather
Now I can’t remember when
The skies were looking better
The crowd is growing thin on the deck of the Pride & Patience
The sails have lost their trim with the shore on the horizon
A ghost of the years of the miles and seas it’s traveled
And I hold back the tears
I could lose it and unravel
The ship is coming home
The tears are mine alone
Only knowing what pride and patience knows
