Steeleye Span Lyrics
Sails of Silver

Fair maid in a garden, walking alone
What is it makes her to weep and to moan?
I am as a tall sailing ship out on the sea,
Where only long breezes reach out to me.

[Chorus:]
And I'll set my sails of silver,
And I'll steer towards the sun,
And you, false love, will weep for me

When I'm gone, when I'm gone, when I'm gone.

Fair maid in a garden, how can it be?
Eyes staring seaward and what does she see?
A mast of the tall rowan tree, ropes of fine silk,
Decks holystoned shining whiter than milk.

[Chorus x2]

[Key change]

[Chorus x3]
[fade]
