"Oh come my love, will you lie with me upon a bed of heather?" A haunting song of love and longing. The boy is about to go to sea, and wants just one night of love with the girl first. And he's sincere.
Brand new old songs of the '30s, '40s, '50s and '60s.
Lyrics
Oh, come, my love, will you lie with me
Upon a bed of heather?
?Neath the shelt?ring tree, you and I shall be
Two hearts entwined together.
Oh, come my love, will you lie with me
On sheets of rose and bramble?
I love you so, but well you know
Like the rose, I grow to ramble.
Away, my love, I must away
Over oceans far and stormy
Where the endless sea and the drudgery
Stretch endlessly before me.
I leave behind for you to find
When you?re all alone and lonely
These bramble sheets and a heart that beats
Darling, for you only.
Oh, come, my love, will you lie with me
?Neath a coverlet of starlight?
With the moon above to bless our love
May this night of love be our night.
Oh, come, my love, will you lie with me
Upon a bed of clover?
Oh, love, love me as I love thee
Though I roam this wild world over.
Oh, come, my love, will you lie with me
Upon a bed of clover?
Oh, love, love me as I love thee
Until this life is over.
