June Tabor - Go From My Window lyrics

Go from my window, my love, my dove
Go from my window, my dear
For the wind is in the West
And the cuckoo's in her nest
And you can't have a lodging here

Go from my window, my love, my dove
Go from my window, my dear
For the weather it is warm
It will never do you harm
And you can't have a lodging here

Go from my window, my love, my dove
Go from my window, my dear
For the wind is rising high and
The ship is lying by
And you can't have a harbouring here

Go from my window, my love, my dove
Go from my window, my dear
Oh, the wind and the rain
Have fetched him back again
But he can't have a harbouring here

Go from my window, my love, my dove
Go from my window, my dear
Oh, the devil's in the man
That he will not understand
That he can't have a lodging here
Fare thee well
That he can't have a lodging here
