I am a young sailor, my story is sad,

Though once I was carefree and a brave sailor lad,

I courted a lassie by night and by day,

Oh but now she has left me,

And sailed far away.

Chorus:

Oh, if I was a blackbird could whistle and sing,

I'd follow the vessel my true love sails in,

And in the top riggin' I would there build my nest,

And I'd flutter my wings o'er her lilly white breast.

Or if I was a scholar and could handle the pen

Once secret love letter to my true love I'd send

And tell of my sorrow, my grief and my pain

Since she's gone and left me

In yon flowery glen.

Chorus...

I sailed o'er the ocean, my fortune to seek

Though I missed her caress and her kiss on my cheek

I returned and I told her my love was still warm

but she turned away lightly

And great was her scorn.

Chorus...

I offered to take her to Donnybrook Fair

And to buy her fine ribbons to tie up her hair

I offered to marry and to stay by her side

But she says in the morning

She sails with the tide.

Chorus...

My parents, they chide me, oh they will not agree

Saying that me and my false love, married should never be

Oh let them deprive me, or let them do what they will

While there's breath in my body

She's the one I love still.

To love well, win or lose.To fight and die in battle ... win or lose ... well.Did I not just say how your whore attitude cheapens what it is to have a life of meaning? is that too Swahili for you?Feckless twits.

Lyrics are a little confusing, you should do it more like this:I am a young sailor, my story is sad,Though once I was carefree and a brave sailor lad,I courted a lassie by night and by day,Oh but now she has left me,And sailed far away.Chorus:Oh, if I was a blackbird could whistle and sing,I'd follow the vessel my true love sails in,And in the top riggin' I would there build my nest,And I'd flutter my wings o'er her lilly white breast.Or if I was a scholar and could handle the penOnce secret love letter to my true love I'd sendAnd tell of my sorrow, my grief and my painSince she's gone and left meIn yon flowery glen.Chorus...I sailed o'er the ocean, my fortune to seekThough I missed her caress and her kiss on my cheekI returned and I told her my love was still warmbut she turned away lightlyAnd great was her scorn.Chorus...I offered to take her to Donnybrook FairAnd to buy her fine ribbons to tie up her hairI offered to marry and to stay by her sideBut she says in the morningShe sails with the tide.Chorus...My parents, they chide me, oh they will not agreeSaying that me and my false love, married should never beOh let them deprive me, or let them do what they willWhile there's breath in my bodyShe's the one I love still.

Was going through a terribly painful divorce when I first heard of Silly Wizard.Although her scorn was great, this song carried my soul on the top riggings of heaven's hope. Friends still, but she sailed with the tide, and the children, and the house . . .she's the one I love still.
