letra de leaving on the evening tide - tim baker

[verse 1]
i am leaving on the evening tide
now mother, don’t go crying
for my own tears are hard enough to hide
and they won’t survive sad parting

[chorus]
for i am bound away to america
no, i can’t delay, no, my mind won’t change
let your young man say goodbye
before your boy begins to cry
i am leaving on the evening tide
i am leaving on the evening tide

[verse 2]
look here old man, i’ve done all i can
and i can’t rise up your burden
for the land is done, and your course is run
but mine has barely begun

[chorus]
so, i am bound away, and i know what you’ll say
you’ll curse the day that you gave me my name
and with your heart so betrayed
full of cruelty and pride
but i am leaving on the evening tide
i am leaving on the evening tide
[post-chorus]
oh-oh-oh, oh
oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

[bridge]
i am leaving on the evening tide
make no mistake, my darling
and were i to gaze once more into your eyes
i would still be in your arms by morning

[chorus]
so, i am bound away, before the break of day
this note explains what i could never say
please don’t wait for me
forget the tears we cried
’cause i am leaving on the evening tide
i am leaving on the evening tide

[outro]
oh-oh-oh, oh
oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh, oh
oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh, oh
oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
i am leaving on the evening tide
