Subject: RE: Laura Smith's 'My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean'
Outstanding piece of Music!

The Lyrics....


My bonny lies over the ocean
My bonny lies over the sea
My bonny lies over the ocean
Bring back my bonny to me


The leaves haven't even started falling
Already there's such a chill in the air
Someone's got a kite on the wind mating calling
Well, I've got a tramp's whisker that tells me you still care


So bring back, bring back
Ah, bring back my bonny to me
Yeah, bring back, bring back
Ah, bring back my bonny to me



Soon there'll be no difference between the land and the water
I can walk on the ice to places I've never been
When I get as far as I can go
Oh, I'm gonna turn and throw my cares over my shoulder
Along with your memory
I'll just let it all float down the Gulf Stream


And I'll walk home singing
My bonny lies over the ocean
My bonny lies over the sea
My bonny lies over the ocean
C'mon bring back, bring back my bonny to me


Yeah, bring back, bring back
Ah, bring back my bonny to me
Yeah, bring back, bring back
Ah, bring back my bonny to me
Bring back my bonny, yeah
Bring back my bonny to me
