the merry wives of windsor – the figurehead كلمات اغاني
it’s of a foolish captain and his wise and weary bride
although not yet bewedded they were at each other’s side
the captain had a headstrong heart [?]
so he did devise a plan despite his lover’s need
the captain loved his ship as any sailor loved the sea
likewise he loved his bride to be both pure and faithfully
and since he could not take her with him, time would not allow
her likeness in a figurehead he fastened to the prow
oh my love, mark what you take to sea
be wary of a ship once it leaves the harbor’s lee
the sea is dark and full of a sailor’s greatest fears
but a ship tied to a lady can only end in tears
when first the captain set out with his two best loves united
the ship upon a coral reef did nearly come alighted
twas only by a narrow scr_pe did crew evade all harm
that very day his lady fell and deeply cut her arm
their second voyage, ship and crew had yet another rake
amid a violent storm the mizzenmast did give and break
and when the captain visited the lady he loved true
he found she now wore crutches for her leg had broken too
oh my love, mark what you take to sea
be wary of a ship once it leaves the harbor’s lee
the sea is dark and full of a sailor’s greatest fears
but a ship tied to a lady can only end in tears
the lady she had had enough of lessons learned too late
and so upon the voyage next she sealed the captain’s fate
she knew that if she tarried she would soon pay with her life
twas that day she vowed that she would be no captain’s wife
the lady tore her dress and sails ripped in her mind’s eye
she threw off both her shoes and saw the anchors both let fly
from seaside cliff she plunged herself, lungs filled with a mighty breath
and as she sank beneath the waves the sailors found their death
oh my love, mark what you take to sea
be wary of a ship once it leaves the harbor’s lee
the sea is dark and full of a sailor’s greatest fears
but a ship tied to a lady can only end in tears
the breath she took was deep enough the sea was not her grave
alas she knew her lover, she had not the power to save
and as he sank to davey jones’, his lady he did see
“i’m sorry, love,” she sadly sang “it was the ship or me”
oh my love, mark what you take to sea
be wary of a ship once it leaves the harbor’s lee
the sea is dark and full of a sailor’s greatest fears
but a ship tied to a lady can only end in tears
and though it gives me pain to send you to your watery end
if between us i much choose tis i’ll who’ll breathe again
yes, if between us i must choose tis i’ll who’ll breathe again
