Flanders Shore Songtext
von Nic Jones

I went unto my love′s chamber window
Where I often had been before
Just to let her know unto Flanders shore
Unto Flanders shore
Never to return to England no more
Never to return to England no more


I went unto my love's chamber door
Where I never had been before
There I saw a light springing from her clothes
Springing from her clothes
Just as the morning sun when first arose
Just as the morning sun when first arose

As I was walking on the Flanders shore
Her own dear father I did meet
"My daughter she is dead" he cried
"She is dead" he cried
"And she′s broken her heart all for the love of thee"
So I hove a bullet onto fair England's shore
Onto fair England's shore
Just where I thought that my own true love did lay
