See?

Okay, so Friday night after work I was invited to see THE GREAT BIG SEA. Now on the phone I thought it was "THE GREAT BIG C" — silly me with my marketing mind in action. Who asked me? Why none other than Alice. She had an extra ticket, so I said "what the hay, why not?" One song stuck out in my mind. Below are the lyrics to this ever so easy to listen to tune.:

greatbigseaBostonand St. John’s
Released June 1999
(written by Doyle)

Girl, don’t tell me that it’s morning
Can we keep the curtains drawn
I haven’t given you fair warning
But our ship, she sails at dawn

Chorus
It’s true I must be going but I swear I won’t be long
There isn’t that much ocean between Boston and St. John’s
I’m a rover and I’m bound to sail away
I’m a rover can you love me anyway?

And if some suitor comes approaching
Will you let him through your door
And what if I return half broken
Will you still want me anymore?

Chorus

Bridge
Close your eyes and dream
Tell me what you see
Tell me what you want
Just tell me that you’ll wait for me

Chorus

Beddie-by time for lil ol’ Gar. K, nigh nigh world. Nigh nigh…<- meaning -> out
