Katie Melua "Sailing Ships From Heaven" lyrics

Sailing Ships From Heaven

And she played the harmonium down by the seaSinging “God save the USA”“And God save me”

And though God never hadShe believed Him to beOn his way

She had lived out in Paris before Paris fellSinging “when will I hear again from Jean Michelle?”

And she prayed for his soulAnd she hoped he was wellAnyway

[Chorus]Hold onFor the sailing ships from heaven won’t be longPlay onTil the sailing ships from heaven come along

And she laughedDon’t be sad like the boys in the treesThey will be waiting for the world to face

She said when they were young they went down on their kneesFor my love

[Chorus]Hold onFor the sailing ships from heaven won’t be longPlay onTil the sailing ships from heaven come along

And she walked on the beach in the wind and the rainSinging “why don’t you ask me why I feel no pain?”

And the reason that keeps me from going insaneThat’s my love

[Chorus]

[Chorus]Hold onFor the sailing ships from heaven won’t be longPlay onTil the sailing ships from heaven come along
