fred small – my roving days lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
the village streets are empty
all the revelers have fled
oh margaret my roving days are over
all the gold that fills my pockets
might as well be lead
oh margaret i’m coming home

[verse 2]
though the wind wail like a banshee
and the snow fly in my face
oh margaret my roving days are over
neither ghost nor gale can stay me
’til i lie in your embrace
oh margaret i’m coming home

[verse 3]
leave the door unbolted
add a pillow to the bed
oh margaret my roving days are over
by your unbraided hair tonight
i’ll lay my weary head
oh margaret i’m coming home

[verse 4]
i’ll climb the stairs so quiet
you will not hear them creak
oh margaret my roving days are over
but forgive me if i kiss you
just once upon the cheek
oh margaret i’m coming home
[verse 5]
too many nights you’ve waited
in a bed too cold by half
oh margaret my roving days are over
all the blankets in the attic
could not keep out the draft
oh margaret i’m coming home

[verse 6]
i’ll not sleep another night
upon some kindly stranger’s floor
oh margaret my roving days are over
i swear my heart will crack
if we be parted any more
oh margaret i’m coming home

[verse 7]
so build a blazing fire tonight
and let the coals burn down
oh margaret my roving days are over
in your drifting dreams
you’ll see me homeward bound
oh margaret i’m coming home
oh margaret i’m coming home
