Leaving Nancy Lyrics by Eric Bogle

0

In comes the train,and the whole platform shakes
It stops with a shudder,and a screaming of brakes
My leaving has come and my weary soul aches
I'm leaving my nancy o

You stand there beside me determinedly gay
We talk of the weather and events of the day
But your eyes tell me all that your lips would'nt say
Goodbye my nancy o

Cho
So come a little closer
Put your head upon my shoulder
And let me hold you one more time
Goodbye my nancy o

My suitcase is lifted and stoad on the train
A thousand regrets whirl around in my
Brain
The ache in my heart is a black sea of pain
I'm leaving my nancy o

You stand there before me so lovely to see
The grip of your hand is an unspoken plea
You're not fooling yourself, and your're not fooling me
Goodbye my nancy o

Cho

Our time has run out and the whistle has blown
And here i must leave you standing alone
We had so little time and now the times gone
I'm leaving my nancy o

And as the train starts gently to roll
And as i lean out for to wave and to call
I see the first tears trickling forth
Goodbye my nancy o

Cho
