Sam Moss - I Drew My Ship lyrics
[Sam Moss - I Drew My Ship lyrics]
I drew my ship into the harbor
I drew it up where my true love lay
I drew it close up to her window
To listen to what my love did say
"Who's there that knocks loud at my window?
Who's there that knocks and dare come in?"
"It is the one who loves you dearly
And rise, dear, and let him in"
And slowly, slowly got she up
Slowly, slowly came she down
But before her door unlocked
Her true love had both come and gone
He's brisk and bold, he's far away
Far beyond yon rangin' main
Where fishes dancin' and
Bright eyes glancin'
Have made him quite forget his aim
I drew it up where my true love lay
I drew it close up to her window
To listen to what my love did say
"Who's there that knocks loud at my window?
Who's there that knocks and dare come in?"
"It is the one who loves you dearly
And rise, dear, and let him in"
And slowly, slowly got she up
Slowly, slowly came she down
But before her door unlocked
Her true love had both come and gone
He's brisk and bold, he's far away
Far beyond yon rangin' main
Where fishes dancin' and
Bright eyes glancin'
Have made him quite forget his aim
