Bilingual
I'll put my ship in order
And I will sail back to the sea
And I'll listen at your window
To see if my true love's mind's on me
When I come into the harbour
The burning Thames I have to cross
And I'll whisper at the window
"Oh my true love, are you alone?"
'Cause I'm here and I'm outside your window
The rain is soaking to the skin
The prison walls I'm scaling
The chains that bind me down
The clay will not contain me
And keep me from your arms
So where is the colour
I used to know
Your cheeks they look so pale
Mary, the ground has changed me
And I'm just the ghost of your Willy oh
'Cause I'm here and I'm outside your window
The rain is soaking to the skin
The prison walls I'm scaling
The chains that bind me down
The clay will not contain me
And keep me from your arms
So hold out your arm
To the joy
To the kiss
From me now
ย
For I must return
To the dark
To the dead
Before light
Ohohohoh
ย
And so I sing unto the morning
Oh sun don't rise before the day
Birds, hold your tunes a bit longer
For dawn comes to steal my sweet one away
