Gaelic Storm - The Ferryman lyrics

[Gaelic Storm - The Ferryman lyrics]

Oh the little boats have gone
From the breast of Anna Liffey
And the Ferrymen are stranded on the quai
The Dublin docks are dying
And a way of life is gone
Its over Molly, over can't you see

Where the strawberry beds
Sweep down to the Liffey
You'll kiss away the troubles from my brow
I love you well today
And I'll love you more tomorrow
If you ever love me molly, love me now!
Now the only job I had
It was hard, but never lonely
The river ferry made a man of me
And it's gone without a whisper
And forgotten even now
And Molly it was part of you and me!

Where the strawberry beds
Sweep down to the Liffey
You'll kiss away the troubles from my brow
I love you well today
And I'll love you more tomorrow
If you ever love me molly, love me now!

And now my work is over
And I'll spend my days in rovin'
I'll hear them whisper
"Charlie's on the dole"
But Molly we're still livin'
And darlin' we're still young
And the river never ruled my heart or soul!

Where the strawberry beds
Sweep down to the Liffey
You'll kiss away the troubles from my brow
I love you well today
And I'll love you more tomorrow
If you ever love me molly, love me now!
Where the strawberry beds
Sweep down to the Liffey
You'll kiss away the troubles from my brow
I love you well today
And I'll love you more tomorrow
If you ever love me molly, love me now!

Oh the little boats have gone
From the breast of Anna Liffey
And the Ferrymen are stranded on the quai
The Dublin docks are dying
And a way of life is gone
Its over Molly, over can't you see
Its over Molly, over can't you see its over
Molly, it's over molly, can't you see
Molly, it's over, Molly can't you see
