Lyrics
(Written by alan doyle)
Girl, don't tell me that it's morning Can we keep the curtains drawn Haven't given you fair warning Oh but our ship, she sails at dawn
Chorus: And 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 And tell me what you see You can tell me what you want Just tell me that you'll wait for me
But oh..., don't tell me that it's morning But can we keep the curtains drawn I haven't given you fair warning But our ship, (but) she sails at dawn
Chorus
