The Flandyke Shore

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
