"Flandyke Shore" lyrics
"Flandyke Shore"
(with Kate & Anna McGarrigle)
I went unto my own love's chamber window
Where I had often been before
Just to let her know love unto flandyke shore
Unto Flandyke shore
Never to return to England no more
Never to return to England no more
I went unto my love's chamber door
Where I never been before
There I saw a light springing from her clothes
Springing from her clothes
Just as the morning sun when first arose
Just as the morning sun when first arose
As I was walking on the Flandyke shore
Her own dear father I did need
"My daughter she is dead," he cried
"She is dead," he cried
"And she's broken her heart all for the love of thee"
So I hove a bullet onto fair England's shore
Onto fair England's shore
Just where I thought my own true love did lay
