We Both Go Down Together

Lyrics

Here on these cliffs of Dover
 So high you can't see over
 & while your head is spinning
 Hold tight, it's just beginning
 You come from parents wanton
 A childhood rough & rotten
 I come from wealth & beauty
 Untouched by work or duty
 & oh, my love, my love
 & oh, my love, my love
 We both go down together
 I found you, a tattooed tramp
 A dirty daughter from the labor camps
 I laid you down on the grass of a clearing
 You wept, but your soul was willing
 & oh, my love, my love
 & oh, my love, my love
 We both go down together
 & my parents will never consent to this love
 But I hold your hand
 Meet me on my vast veranda
 My sweet, untouched Miranda
 & while the seagulls are crying
 We fall, but our souls are flying
 & oh, my love, my love
 & oh, my love, my love
 & oh, my love, oh my love
 & oh, my love, my love
 We both go down together
