The Day Your Ship Gets Through
Written by Glen Burtnik
Lead Vocals by Glen Burtnik
I know it’s hard (so hard) and it ain’t like in the movies you’re a hard
working girl
We all get tired, (tired of waiting) so tired of looking for some
justice in this world
But you gotta believe something comes from all the hurting and it all
don’t add up until the final curtain
Baby, I’ll stand by you until the day that your ship gets thru
The fog is rolling in, but that won’t last forever it’ll come and go by
There’s a crack in the walk, a tugging on the heart and a leak up in the
sky
That’s when a seed reaches out and a flower starts unfolding and the
heavens open up
Oh, just like I told you baby I’ll stand by you until the day that your
ship gets thru
No one’s gonna take advantage
No one’s gonna break your heart
Nobody’s pulling out the rug from underneath the things you love
Love - it’s the flame that burns forever
And the rain ain’t no threat
So never mind the weather baby
I’ll be standing right beside you ‘til the day that your ship gets thru
Right until the day that your ship gets thru
