THE FLANDYKE SHORE from Nic Jones
I went unto my love's chamber window Where I often I had been before Just to let her know unto Flandyke Shore Unto Flandyke Shore Never to return to England no more Never to return to England no more
I went uto my love's chamber door Where I'd never had been before There I saw a light springing from her clothes Springing from her clothes Just as the morning sun when first arose Just as the morning sun when first arose
As I was walking on the Flandyke Shore Her own dear father I did meet "My daughter, she is dead", he cried "She is dead", he cried "And she's broken her heart all for the love of thee" So I hoved a bullet onto fair England's shore Onto fair England's shore Just where I thought that my own true love did lay
