lyrics

As I walked out one morning
In the Springtime of the year
The birds about me singing
And the sky was blue and clear

The world, it seemed a wondrous place
For people living free
If I could only find a way
To bring my love to me
Contented I would be

Oh love, how much I miss you
And you must feel the same
How hard it is to find love
Then be alone again

If I had a swallow's wings
I'd fly right to your side
And if I had a boat I'd sail
To you across the tide
I'd brave the flowing tide

I wish I was in Whitehaven
And walking by the Strand
And my dear lass so close that I
Could reach and touch her hand

But I am still so far away
Across the Irish sea
If Fortune's fair I'll meet her there
I know she'll wait for me

As I walked out one morning
In the Springtime of the year
The birds about me singing
And the sky was blue and clear

The world, it seemed a wondrous place
For people living free
If I could only find a way
To bring my love to me
Contented I would be
