[00:01.06]
[00:13.64] Oh, I'm sailing away, my own true love
[00:23.54] I'm sailing away in the morning
[00:32.15] Is there something I can send you from across the sea?
[00:41.92] From the place where I'll be landing?
[00:51.97] There's nothing you can send me, my own true love
[01:02.00] There's nothing I'm wishing to be owning
[01:10.68] Just carry yourself back to me unspoiled
[01:20.54] From across that lonesome ocean
[01:30.81] Oh, but I just thought you might want something fine
[01:41.05] It's made of silver or of golden
[01:50.45] Either from the mountains of Madrid
[01:59.55] Or from the coast of Barcelona
[02:10.39] If I had the stars of the darkest night
[02:20.71] Or the diamonds from the deepest ocean
[02:30.14] I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss
[02:40.01] That's all I wish to be owning
[02:50.47] Oh, I might be gone a long ol' time
[03:00.80] And it's only that I'm asking
[03:10.08] Is there something I can send you to remember me by?
[03:19.89] To make your time more easy passing?
[03:31.10] How can, how can you ask me again?
[03:41.51] Well it only brings me sorrow
[03:51.24] Oh, the same thing I would want today
[04:00.91] I would want again tomorrow
[04:25.39] Oh, I got a letter on a lonesome day
[04:36.19] It was from his ship a-sailing
[04:44.53] Saying, I don't know when I'll be coming back again
[04:55.30] It depends on how I'm feeling
[05:05.69] If you, my love, must think that away
[05:16.37] I know your mind is a-roaming
[05:25.34] I know your thoughts are not with me
[05:35.07] But with the country where you're going
[05:46.28] So take heed, take heed of the western wind
[05:56.85] Take heed of stormy weather
[06:05.98] And yes, there is something you can send back to me
