Remember Me

Brown was the color of my true love's hair
 Her skin was like a lily fair
 It broke my heart when he sailed away
 Now in my dreams I can hear him say
 Remember me
 Oh, captain-captain tell me too
 Does my dear sailor boy sail with you?
 Tell me he does and bring me great joy
 None can I love but my sailor boy
 Remember me
 Oh, no, young lady he is not here
 In the cove he drowned and we left him there
 Along the rocks as we passed by
 There we left your true lover lie
 Remember me
 So dig my grave both wide and deep
 A marble stone at my head and feet
 And at my chest a sweet turtle dove
 To show the world
 I died of love
 Remember me
 Brown was the color of my true love's hair
 Her skin was like a lily fair
 It broke my heart when he sailed away
 Now in my dreams I can hear him say
 Remember me
 Remember me
 Remember me
