Midnight on the Stormy Deep Lyrics by Sam Bush

Circles Around Me

2009

>
It was midnight on the stormy deep
My solitary watch I'd keep
And think of her I'd left behind
And ask if she'd be true and kind
I never shall forget the day
When I was forced to go away
In silence, there my head she'd rest
And pressed me to her loving breast
Oh, Willy! Don't go back to sea
There's other girls as good as me
But none can love you true as I
Pray don't go where the bullets fly
The deep, deep sea may us divide
And I may be some other's bride
But still my thoughts will sometimes stray
To thee when thou art far away
I never have proved false to thee
The heart I gave was true as thine
But you have proven untrue to me
I can no longer call thee mine
Then fare-thee-well, I'd rather make
My home upon some icy lake
Where the southern sun refused to shine
Then to trust a love so false as thine
