Sweet Thames Flow Softly Alison Brown

[Verse 1]
I met my love near Woolwich Pier
Beneath the big crane standing
And all the love I felt for her
It passed all understanding

[Chorus]
Took her sailing on the river
Flow, sweet river, flow
London town was mine to give her
Sweet Thames, flow softly

[Chorus]
Made the Thames into a crown
Flow, Sweet River, flow
Made a brooch of silver town
Sweet Thames, flow softly

[Verse 2]
From Shadwell dock to Nine Elms Reach
We cheek to cheek were dancing
Her necklace made from London Bridge
Her beauty was еnhancing

[Chorus]
Kissed her once again at Wapping
Flow, sweet rivеr, flow
After that there was no stopping
Sweet Thames, flow softly
