No 41 Come to My Window

C.J.S.

[ [XML] [Note]

1
Come to my window, my Love, O my Love,
Come to my window, my Dear.
For my mammy is asleep,
And my daddy snoreth deep,
Then come, e’er the day-light appear.
2
Come to my window, my Love, O my Love,
Come to my window, I pray.
O the hours so quickly pass,
And the dew falls on the grass.
Dear Love come, e’er dawneth the day.
3
Come to my window, my Love, O my Love,
Come or my heart strings will break.
For the night is speeding by,
Soon will morning streak the sky,
And my dad and my mam will awake.
4
Come to my window, my Love, O my Love,
Come e’er the stars cease to shine.
For my heart is full of fears,
And my voice is chok’d with tears,
I am Thine, O thou know’st I am Thine.
