Great Big Sea - Boston And St. John's lyrics

[Great Big Sea - Boston And St. John's lyrics]

Girl, don't tell me that it's morning
Can we keep the curtains drawn
I haven't given you fair warning
But our ship, she sails at dawn

And it's true I must be going but I swear
I won't be long
There isn't that much ocean between
Boston and St john's
But, I'm a rover and I'm bound to sail away
I'm a rover can you love me anyway?

Oh, and if some suitor comes approaching
Will you let him through your door
And what if I return half broken
Will you still want me anymore?
And it's true I must be going but I swear
I won't be long
There isn't that much ocean between
Boston and St john's
But, I'm a rover and I'm bound to sail away
I'm a rover, can you love me anyway?

Close your eyes and dream and
Tell me what you see
Tell me what you want just tell
Me that you'll wait for me

But oh don't tell me that it's morning
Can we keep the curtains drawn
I haven't given you fair warning
But our ship, she sails at dawn

And it's true I must be going but
I swear I won't be long
There isn't that much ocean between
Boston and St john's
But, I'm a rover and I'm bound to sail away
I'm a rover, oh I'm a rover
I'm a rover, can you love me anyway?
Love me anyway, love me anyway, no no oh
