Dear Elizabeth
I hope this letter finds you just the same as it leaves me
Dear Elizabeth
We had a storm, a northwest gale at sea
Oh, dear Elizabeth
We sail at noon, I'll bring you a present back
Dear Elizabeth
I'll see you soon, goodbye for now, yours, Jack
My great grandfather sailed the seas in a clipper as a mate
He was born in Carney Shields back in 1828
And he courted dear Elizabeth who saved each letter from her beau
Now I've read each one, each verse a tear, yet I feel a glow
Dear Elizabeth
I hope this letter finds you just the same as it leaves me
Dear Elizabeth
We had a storm, a northwest gale at sea
Oh, dear Elizabeth
We sail at noon, and I'll bring you a present back
Dear Elizabeth
I'll see you soon, goodbye for now, yours, Jack
His letters weren't the usual ones
Full of "I love you, my dear"
No kisses, no forget me nots
But still one thing was clear
Oh, he loved her dearly in his way
As a sailor honest and rough
For the way he began each sentence
To her was quite enough
Dear Elizabeth
I hope this letter finds you just the same as it leaves me
Dear Elizabeth
We had a storm, a northwest gale at sea
Oh, dear Elizabeth
We sail at noon, I'll bring you a present back
Dear Elizabeth
I'll see you soon, goodbye for now, yours, Jack
So now I sigh and shed a tear about the man so fine
I think that's what Elizabeth did each time she read a line
And she was sitting there at home as he sailed out to sea
They never knew his letters few could do the same for me
Oh, dear Elizabeth
I hope this letter finds you just the same as it leaves me
Dear Elizabeth
We had a storm, a northwest gale at sea
Oh, dear Elizabeth
We sail at noon, I'll bring you a present back
Dear Elizabeth
I'll see you soon, goodbye for now, yours, Jack
Dear Elizabeth
I hope this letter finds you just the same as it leaves me
Dear Elizabeth
We had a storm, a northwest gale at sea
Oh, dear Elizabeth
We sail at noon, I'll bring you a present back
Dear Elizabeth
I'll see you soon, goodbye for now, yours, Jack
I hope this letter finds you just the same as it leaves me
Dear Elizabeth
We had a storm, a northwest gale at sea
Oh, dear Elizabeth
We sail at noon, I'll bring you a present back
Dear Elizabeth
