Lowlands Away (Jane’s Version)
He dreamed a dream, the other night,
Lowlands! Lowlands away, me John!
A dream of me, dressed all in white,
Lowlands away!
I came to him, at his bedside,
Lowlands! Lowlands away me John!
Dressed all in white, like some fair bride,
Lowlands away!
And when I came, to him in sleep,
Lowlands! Lowlands away me John!
My cheeks were wet, my eyes did weep,
Lowlands away!
I wore the rose, he gave to me,
Lowlands! Lowlands away me John!
Before he left, to sail the seas,
Lowlands away!
I made no sound, no word was said,
Lowlands! Lowlands away me John!
‘Twas then he knew, that I was dead,
Lowlands away!
As he awoke, he heard the cry;
Lowlands! Lowlands away me John!
“All watch on deck! All watch ahoy!”
Lowlands away!
