Your ship has gone Way out to sea Past the volcanoes At Talasea This time I've missed it One day you'll see Well I'll wait for my ship to come back in again And I'll wait till I'm tired and they'll say what a Fool to be waiting At a loose end If this is the rock At the end of the road With no way to go past it Then this must be home If this time I've missed it Then forever I'll roam Well I'll wait for my ship to come back in again And I'll wait till I'm tired and they'll say what a Fool to be waiting At a loose end Look down from Mt. Warning And wait for your ship to come in Well there's all kinds of treasure And your luck it will change with the wind So be patient I always fall over It's just a simple thing I lose concentration When the social hour begins But I'm up and I'm leaving I'm off with the wind Well I'll wait here in vain I've got nothing to lose And I'll wait till I'm tired and they'll say what a Fool This ship has been gone for one hell of a while When it goes out of sight then it goes out of style I'll wait for my ship to come back in again I'll wait till I'm tired then I'll wake up again Well I'll wait here in vain I've got nothing to lose And I'll wait till I'm tired say what a fool to be Waiting
