the celtic tenors - the dutchman كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
the dutchman’s not the kind of man
to keep his thumb jammed in the dam
that holds his dreams in
but that’s a secret only margaret knows
when amsterdam is golden in the morning
margaret brings him breakfast
she believes him
he thinks the tulips bloom beneath the snow
he’s mad as he can be, but margaret only sees that sometimes
sometimes she sees her unborn children in his eyes

[chorus]
let us go to the banks of the ocean
where thе walls rise above the zuidеrzee
long ago, i used to be a young man
and dear margaret remembers that for me

[verse 2]
the dutchman still wears wooden shoes
his cap and coat are patched with love
that margaret sewed there
sometimes he thinks he’s still in rotterdam
he watches tug_boats down c_n_ls
an’ calls out to them when he thinks he knows the captain
till margaret comes to take him home again
through unforgiving streets that trip him, though she holds his arm
sometimes he thinks that he’s alone and calls her name
[chorus]
let us go to the banks of the ocean
where the walls rise above the zuiderzee
long ago, i used to be a young man
and dear margaret remembers that for me

[verse 3]
the windmills whirl the winter
she winds his m_ffler tighter
they sit in the kitchen
some tea with whiskey keeps away the dew
he sees her for a moment, calls her name
she makes the bed up
humming some old love song
she learned it when the tune was very new
he hums a line or two, they hum together in the night
the dutchman falls asleep
and margaret blows the candle out

[chorus]
let us go to the banks of the ocean
where the walls rise above the zuiderzee
long ago, i used to be a young man
and dear margaret remembers that for me
