chris de burgh – moonfleet bay lyrics
alas poor john, he was a prisoner,
fortune’s fool for many a day,
blinded by that cursed diamond,
with his freedom, he must pay;
and so it was for faithful elzevir,
cast in chains for ten long years,
with never a word of blame or anger,
just for john, t’was only tears;
oh oh oh, only tears,
oh oh oh…
blow, wind blow,
and send them home again,
set the sails for england’s way,
many a heart is grieving for them,
bring them back to moonfleet bay;
and as for grace,
she’d still be waiting,
waiting for her only love,
every night a candle burning at her window,
should he come;
oh oh oh, should he come,
oh oh oh…
blow, wind blow,
and send them home again,
set the sails for england’s way,
many a heart is grieving for them,
bring them back to moonfleet bay;
blow, wind blow,
and send them home again,
set the sails for england’s way,
many a heart is grieving for them,
bring them back to moonfleet bay;
many a heart is grieving for them,
bring them back to moonfleet bay!
