Verse 1)
Got a tiny vessel, built with skill and might
Sealed inside this glass, a wondrous, curious sight
Been years since I set sail, upon the open blue
Now I'm just a centerpiece, for me and for you
(Chorus)
I'm a ship in a bottle, gotta rub me the right way
To set my sails unfurled, and see the light of day
Oh, I'm a ship in a bottle, trapped within this clear confine
Just wish upon my mast, and watch my rigging shine
(Verse 2)
Used to brave the tempests, and the ocean's mighty roar
Now my biggest challenge is collecting dust on the floor
Heard a whisper lately, a gentle, hopeful plea
Someone wants to see me, truly wild and free
(Chorus)
I'm a ship in a bottle, gotta rub me the right way
To set my sails unfurled, and see the light of day
Oh, I'm a ship in a bottle, trapped within this clear confine
Just wish upon my mast, and watch my rigging shine
(Bridge)
Don't need a giant ocean, just a chance to feel the breeze
A little bit of magic, to put my mind at ease
My miniature crew is ready, for adventures new and grand
If only you would take me, from this tabletop of sand
(Chorus)
I'm a ship in a bottle, gotta rub me the right way
To set my sails unfurled, and see the light of day
Oh, I'm a ship in a bottle, trapped within this clear confine
Just wish upon my mast, and watch my rigging shine
(Outro)
Oh-oh-oh, ship in a bottle, ready to explore
Oh-oh-oh, ship in a bottle, knocking on your door
Just let me out, let me out, set me free, you see
This ship in a bottle, longing for the sea
