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
|
|
[Chorus]
|
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
|
I'm a rover and I'm bound to sail away
|
I'm a rover can you love me anyway?
|
|
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?
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Bridge]
|
Close your eyes and dream
|
Tell me what you see
|
Tell me what you want
|
Just tell me that you'll wait for me
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|

Boston And St. John's

| Great Big Sea |
