Trad, arr Elle Osborne

lyrics

I drew my ship into a harbour
I drew it up, where my true love lay
I drew it close by to her window
To listen what my love did say

Who's there who knocks loud at my window?
Who's there, who's there and would be in?
It's me your sweetheart, who loves you dearly
Open up, love, and let me in

So slowly, slowly got she up
And slowly, slowly came she down
But fore she got her door unlocked,
Her love had already come, and gone

Come back, come back my own dear lover,
Come back, come back all to my side
I never did grieve you, nor yet deceive you
Come back, and I'll be your bride

He's brisk and braw, he's far away
He's far beyond that yon raging main
Where fishers dancing and dark eyes glancing
Have made him fair forget his ain
