bellowhead - i drew my ship across the harbour lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i drew my ship into the harbour
i drew her close where my true love lay
and i drew her closer to her bedroom window
to listen to what my love would say

[chorus]
“who’s there? who’s there?
at my bedroom window?
who knocks so loudly?”
“oh, let me in
it is your true love
who loves you dearly
so rise, dear love, and let me in”

[chorus 2]
and i will put my ship in order
i’ll set her on the sea
i’ll come up to the harbour
where my true love waits for me

[verse 2]
and slowly, slowly she rose up
and slowly, slowly she came down
but when she had her door unlocked
her true love had both come and gone

[chorus 2]
and i will put my ship in order
and i’ll set her on the sea
and i’ll come up to the harbour
where my true love waits for me

[bridge]
come back, come back, my own true love
come back, come back, come to my side
i never grieved you
no yet deceived you
and i would surely be your bride

[verse 3]
the fish shall fly
and the seas run dry
and the rocks shall melt full in the sun
and the labouring men shall forget their labour
if ever i return again

[chorus 2 & outro]
and i will put my ship in order
and i’ll set her on the sea
and i’ll come up to the harbour
where my true love waits for me
put my ship in order
set her on the sea
come up to the harbour
where my true love waits for me
