VERSE 1:
If I were a carpenter and you were a lady
Would you marry me anyway? Would you have my baby?
If a tinker were my trade would you still find me?
Carrying the pots I made, following behind me
Save my love for loneliness, save my love for sorrow
I'll give you my onliness, give me your tomorrow
|
VERSE 2:
If I worked my hands in wood would you still love me?
Answer me babe, "Yes, I would, and I'll put you above me"
If I were a miller at a mill wheel grinding
Would you miss your colored blouse and your soft shoes shining
Save my love for loneliness, save my love for sorrow
I'll give you my onliness, give me your tomorrow
