If I were a carpenter, and you were a lady
|
Would you marry me anyway? would you have my baby?
|
If a tinker were my trade, would you still find me
|
Carrying the pots I made - following behind me?
|
Save my love through loneliness - save my love through sorrow
|
I give you my only-ness - give me your tomorrow
|
|
If I worked my hands in wood, would you still love me?
|
Answer me, babe: "yes I would - I'd put you above me"
|
If a miller were my trade, at a mill wheel grinding
|
Would you miss your colour box - your soft shoes shining
|
Save my love through loneliness - save my love through sorrow
|
I give you my only-ness - come give me your tomorrow
|
|
If I were a carpenter, and you were a lady
|
Would you marry me anyway? would you have my baby?
|
Would you marry me anyway? would you have my baby?
