Copper Kettle Band - Old North Shore

On the old north shore
There my truest love and I we bid farewell
The winds were high
But his captain called to him and he must take the sail
Though I begged him not to go
For the roaring wind and snow
Would surely bring him down
N'er to return

Hear me cry
Oh for one more moment in your arms
A cruel goodbye
These waters are a grave forever more
Bid our last farewell
By the old north shore

On the old north shore
I told my dearest love that all was well
Kissed her hand
Brushed her cheek and placed a flower in her hair
Though I felt the wind and hail
My heart began to fail
And I looked back to see my love
For one last time

Hear me cry
Oh for one more moment in your arms
A cruel goodbye
These waters are a grave forever more
Bid our last farewell
By the old north shore

Hear me cry
Oh for one more moment in your arms
A cruel goodbye
These waters are a grave forever more
Bid our last farewell
By the old north shore
Bid our last farewell
By the old north shore
