John Wesley Harding - The Flandyke Shore Lyrics

I went unto my love’s chamber window Where I often had been before Just to let her know unto flandyke shore Unto flandyke shore Never to return to england no more Never to return to england no more I went unto my love’s chamber door Where I never had been before There I saw a light springing from her clothes Springing from her clothes Just as the morning sun when first arose Just as the morning sun when first arose As I was walking on the flandyke shore Her own dear father I did meet My daughter she is dead he cried She is dead he cried And she’s broken her heart all for the love of thee So I hove a bullet on to fair england’s shore On to fair england’s shore Just where I thought that my own true love did lay John Wesley Harding Lyrics The Flandyke Shore Lyrics
