about

This song was originally arranged and produced by Chris Tarry as a companion piece to the dramatization of his short story Nennorluk Goes Down Deep, which appeared on season 2, episode 7 of the Dark Tome podcast. There have been requests to make the song available for download, so by popular demand, here it is!

lyrics

Oh I will set my ship in order
I will sail her on the sea
I'll go far over yonder border
To see if my love minds on me

And he sailed east and he sailed west
He sailed far, so far seeking land
Until he came to his true love's window
And if he knocked he would be in

Oh who is that at my bedroom window?
Who knocks so loud and would be in?
Tis I, 'tis I, your one true lover
And I am drenched on to my skin

Come back, come back, my one dear Johnny
Come back, come back and marry me
How can I come back and marry you, love?
When our ship is sailing on the sea

She's turned herself right around
She's flung herself into the sea
so it's farewell thee well, my dear Johnny
You'll never have to come back to me
You'll never have to come back to me
You'll never have to come back to me
