Lyrics
Shipyards
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
On a river where they used to build the boats
By the harbour wall the place you loved the most
I can see you there alone, but all you know
I'll be there
Soon
All your life you worked your fingers to the bone
You worked hard for every little thing you owned
But you gave away for yours as if you'd known
They will call
And out
Call and out
Call and out
But if you could see me now
But if you could see me now
I hope that I'm making you proud
I hope that I'm making you proud
I hope that I'm making you proud
Proud
Like a ship you built you're long gone from the coast
Where you are and where we go we'll never know
On a ship you built that's where I see you most
If your smile
And eyes
If your smile and eyes
If your smile and eyes
But if you could see me now
If you could see me now
I hope that I am making you proud
I hope that I am making you proud
I hope that I am making you proud
Proud
Proud
Proud
Proud
