Shallow River Run Lyrics by Amble

Of Land and Sea - EP

0

My love she came to me
Saddle up your horses three
My father's land to keep
Is yours to follow me
All down to Beaufort flee
Mother's blessing we need
Sheep in Black Valley sing
The pleasant joy we bring
All around the ditches
All around the Glen
See the mountain Peak
And hush the locals now
Maid in the morning sing
Babe in the cot now lye
Stir the auld wans shivering
Tis not the night to die
It came a child was born
Feet fit the barleycorn
Land filled his heart with scorn
He took ship to New York
Caught on the docklands there
Met a wife so fair
We haven't seen nor heard
For two dozen a year
All around the ditches
All around the Glen
Hold my still eyed stare
For to keep my thoughts bare
I haven't long to give
I have not one to hold
When the long day comes
I'll accept what I'm told
And now the ivy leaves
Creep up the walls on me
The broken barren trees
Reflect no life in me
The palest clouds above
The shallow river run
Let my dampened bones
Weary keep now at home
All around the ditches
All around the Glen
See my fate is met
And lay me down on high ground
I wish to sit upon
The golden throne of skies
(And) watch valleys open
And see it from your eyes
