Devil Ship

Текст песни Among The Oak & Ash - Devil Ship

Devil Ship LyricsWell met, well met, my own true love
Well met, well met, said he
You've gone away with another my love
And thus forsaken me

Now do not cry for my broken heart
Nor for your broken vows
It's for your children that ask after you that I'm crying now

And I am just a house carpenter
That's all I want to be
But you took from me everything that I had
And stole across the sea
Now leave it to a messenger
To only bring bad news
On the fly he brought me to mine
None which I could use

Set sail set sail, the captain said
I have what I've come for
He gave to her the strangest plans
She'd ever seen before

And I am just a house carpenter
That's all I want to be
But you took from me everything that I had
And stole across the sea

I heard sad stories all my life
But none so sad as this
A mile from shore a storm came forth
And stirred that black abyss

The gallant ship spun one time around
She prayed "Forgive me, please"
Too late, too late, said the Devil's first mate
Your soul belongs to the seas

And I am just a house carpenter
It's all I want to be
But you took from me everything that I had
And stole across the sea
Now I"m not a man of many words
Or one of great discern
But a many a lessons were taught
And few that we will learn

But I can say without regret
To keep you safe from raff
Content yourself with your circumstance
Be happy with the life you have
