Oh, I’m sailin’ away my own true love | |
I’m sailin’ away in the morning | |
Is there something I can send you from across the sea | |
From the place that I’ll be landing? | |
No, there’s nothin’ you can send me, my own true love | |
There’s nothin’ I wish to be ownin’ | |
Just carry yourself back to me unspoiled | |
From across that lonesome ocean | |
Oh, but I just thought you might want something fine | |
Made of silver or of golden | |
Either from the mountains of Madrid | |
Or from the coast of Barcelona | |
Oh, but if I had the stars from the darkest night | |
And the diamonds from the deepest ocean | |
I’d forsake them all for your sweet kiss | |
For that’s all I’m wishin’ to be ownin’ | |
That I might be gone a long time | |
And it’s only that I’m askin’ | |
Is there something I can send you to remember me by | |
To make your time more easy passin’ | |
Oh, how can, how can you ask me again | |
It only brings me sorrow | |
The same thing I want from you today | |
I would want again tomorrow | |
I got a letter on a lonesome day | |
It was from her ship a-sailin’ | |
Saying I don’t know when I’ll be comin’ back again | |
It depends on how I’m a-feelin’ | |
Well, if you, my love, must think that-a-way | |
I’m sure your mind is roamin’ | |
I’m sure your heart is not with me | |
But with the country to where you’re goin’ | |
So take heed, take heed of the western wind | |
Take heed of the stormy weather | |
And yes, there’s something you can send back to me | |
Spanish boots of Spanish leather |
Oh, I' m sailin' away my own true love | |
