Don’t Sing

 

Don’t sing a song to me, my dear,
Don’t sing a song to me.
Tell me, were you alone
When I rang you on the phone
After being at sea for twenty year?

Don’t sing a song to me, my dear,
Don’t sing a song to me.
Tell me where you were
When I came up from the pier
After being at sea for twenty year?

Don’t sing a song to me, my dear,
Don’t sing a song to me.
Tell me why you left
When I said I was bereft
After being at sea for twenty year?

Don’t sing a song to me, my dear,
Don’t sing a song to me.
I am back at sea though
I would like you to know
I’ll be home again in twenty year.
