Girl, don't tell me that it's morning

Can we keep the curtains drawn

I haven't given you fair warning

But our ship, she sails at dawn



CHORUS:

It's true I must be going but I swear I won't be long

There isn't that much ocean between Boston and St. John's

I'm a rover and I'm bound to sail away

I'm a rover. Can you love me anyway?



And if some suitor comes approaching

Will you let him through your door

And what if I return half broken

Will you still want me anymore?



CHORUS



Close your eyes and dream

Tell me what you see

Tell me what you want

Just tell me that you'll wait for me



Girl, don't tell me that it's morning

Can we keep the curtains drawn

I haven't given you fair warning

But our ship, she sails at dawn



CHORUS
