Lowlands Away
Traditional. From the singing of my father Joe Hardy, and Billy Jolly of Orkney.
I dreamed a dream the other night
Lowlands, lowlands away my John
I dreamed a dream the other night
Lowlands, my lowlands low
My love came to me dressed in white
Lowlands, lowlands away my John
My love came to me dressed in white
Lowlands, my lowlands low
He made no sound, no word he spoke
Lowlands, lowlands away my John
He made no sound, no word he spoke
Lowlands, my lowlands low
The salt seaweed was in his hair
Lowlands, lowlands away my John
The salt seaweed was in his hair
Lowlands, my lowlands low
And then I knew my love was dead
Lowlands, lowlands away my John
And then I knew my love was dead
Lowlands, my lowlands low
I dreamed a dream the other night
Lowlands, lowlands away my John
I dreamed a dream the other night
Lowlands, my lowlands low
