Bring Me a Boat Kate Rusby

[Verse 1]
Bring me a boat to cross to my dear
I stand here alone with my sweetheart so near
Bring me a boat to cross o'er the Tyne
For its deep murky waters parts his heart and mine

[Chorus]
And the Tyne it flows on and out to the sea
If a boat I am granted then safe let me be
And gently I'll go, for gently I'll row
As gently you breathe as you ebb and you flow

[Verse 2]
Does he know I stand each day on the shore?
Does he know I'd give all to see him once more?
Does he know I've wept ten thousand times o'er?
And is he still waiting as he was before?

[Chorus]
And the Tyne it flows on and out to the sea
If a boat I am granted then safe let me be
And gently I'll go, for gently I'll row
As gently you breathe as you ebb and you flow

[Instrumental Break]
