Sting - Waters Of Tyne lyrics

Written by anon I cannot get to my love if I would die; The water of tyne runs between her and me And here I must stand with a tear in my 'ee Both sighing and sickly, my sweetheart to see I cannot get to my love, if I would die; The water of tyne runs between her and me And here I must stand with a tear in my 'ee Both sighing and sickly my sweetheart to see Oh, where is the boatman, my bonny hinny? Oh, where is the boatman? bring him to me To ferry me over the tyne to my honey And I will remember the boatman and thee Oh, bring me a boatman, I'll give any money And you for your troubles rewarded shall be To ferry me over the tyne to my honey Or scull her across the rough river to me
