Bring Me A Boat |
Bring me a boat to cross to my dear |
I stand here alone, with my sweetheart so near |
Bring me a boat to cross o’er the Tyne |
For its deep murky waters part his heart and mine |
And the Tyne it flows on and out to the sea |
If a boat I am granted then safe let me be |
And gently I’ll go, for gently I’ll row |
As gently you breathe as you ebb and you flow |
Does he know I stand each day on the shore |
Does he know I’d give all to see him once more |
Does he know I’ve wept ten thousand times o’re |
And is he still waiting as he was before |
And the Tyne it flows on and out to the sea |
If a boat I am granted then safe let me be |
And gently I’ll go, for gently I’ll row |
As gently you breathe as you ebb and you flow |
The boatman he wants the gold I can’t give |
My parents are poor so I’ve nothing to give |
Only my heart and that will not float |
So please don’t deny me and bring me a boat |
And the Tyne it flows on and out to the sea |
If a boat I am granted then safe let me be |
And gently I’ll go, for gently I’ll row |
As gently you breathe as you ebb and you flow |
