Liverpool Light

歌詞

Liverpool Light by Bill Staines I've sailed this island for most of my life All the way from the Minch to Dundee And in Liverpool once I did take me a wife And it's her that I'm longing to see Cho: Singing, Shine, shine, Liverpool light Shine on your children below; Singing, Shine, shine, Liverpool light Shine on your children below Shine on your children below. Three months ago April I left her with child A child that was mine sure as she. But she'd not complain, for she's gentle and mild And it's her that I'm longing to see. Cho. I've sinned a lot, for a sinner I be; As a sailor, I've sailed in the storms. But in Liverpool, thatÕs where I'm longing to be, With her arms wrapped around me so warm. Cho. When the light from your tower is all that I see, And her footsteps they run to the door. Then I'll lift up my glass, and for all men to see, I will vow to go sailing no more. Cho.
