Serenade To A Sweet Lady Songtext
[And here I sit with the tears in my eye
the waters of tinning between you and I] bis

As a child I dreamed of her
on the far banks of the river
I knew she could not be reached
for my mind was for ever wondering
far above his head
as he tried his best to teach me.
The river was muddy and black
black as the cold she carried
impossible to cross
many men had tried
the old sailor told me
another life is lost.

And here I sit... (bis)

And black was the colour of my childish dreams
impressions that would last
black cold, cold black
kept Jack's face
escaping the cold that blasts
blind cold is tumbling into the light of day
to retire in the green fields for ever
and I'll build me a bridge of steel
till beat that black river for ever
I'll beat that black river for ever
I'll beat that murderer river for ever.
And here I sit... (bis)
…the waters of tinning between you and I
