Marrying the Sea

Marrying the Sea - Declan O'Rourke/De Dannan/Jimmy Keane[00:00:00]

Well I stood before the ocean[00:00:18]

In the middle of the night[00:00:23]

Cause I loved her so I asked her[00:00:28]

Then if she would be my wife [00:00:31]

And then I closed my eyes and waited [00:00:38]

And I listened for an answer[00:00:44]

Until she kissed my feet and whispered [00:00:49]

'I could not give you my hand sir [00:00:55]

Then as she walked me up and down along the shore[00:01:01]

She said You're far too young to marry me [00:01:09]

For I am old as old can be [00:01:15]

And I've been wed with many men [00:01:22]

But for all my love I've far outlived them all [00:01:28]

So I went to her the next night[00:01:37]

All a-merried up with wine[00:01:42]

And I asked her for her long blue hand [00:01:47]

For to hold hers there in mine [00:01:53]

And then once again I waited and I listened for a while [00:01:59]

Until I heard her voice come crashing in the waves[00:02:10]

That broke all round for miles and miles [00:02:14]

She said How could I place my trust in thee [00:02:22]

When I am bound and you are free[00:02:28]

See so many men have took my hand [00:02:34]

And so many of them left me for the land [00:02:40]

There were fishermen whalers seamen and sailors [00:02:47]

But for all it's just me and the moon [00:02:55]

And for each star above me ten more have loved me [00:03:02]

How could it be different with you[00:03:11]

So when it was quiet on the third night I said [00:03:20]

My life is in your hands [00:03:27]

You can keep me for the time I have [00:03:32]

Or I'll lie here on the sand [00:03:38]

And it was quiet on the third night[00:03:45]

As I took off my shoes [00:03:51]

But as I walked into her arms she said [00:03:56]

Sure what have I to lose[00:04:04]
