Martina Sorbara - This ShipLyrics

Trying to read her palm With a clenched fist Calling out for whatever's in store Asking: "God, did the Devil put you up to this? Whatever it is, I can't take it any more," She says "I'm gonna make Something of myself tonight God and the Devil, I'll show you up I can fight back and I just might Your tempting business isn't All that tough," She's thrown all caution to the wind Hoping to catch it in her sails When her ship comes in But this ship won't float No, it just don't Parading around town With her open wounds Saying: "hush now, don't tell a soul," Any charity will come too soon "I can get through this on my own," And she's recruiting sympathy like it's an army And as the front lines fall, she brings new lines up She says: "keep on your tip-toes, boys My tissue's scarring," Collecting pity like change in a cup And she's thrown all caution to the wind Hoping to catch it in her sails When her ship comes in But this ship won't float No, it just don't She won't make it worth her while She won't let it get her down Just try hard to keep that smile But it's just an upside-down frown I said make it worth your while I said let it get you down Why try so hard to keep that smile When it's just an upside-down frown? Trying to read her palm With a clenched fist Calling out for more Saying, "God and the devil You won't get away with this When my ship comes in I'll win this war God and the devil You haven't seen the end of this When my ship comes in I'll win this war,"
