Thread Name: ADD: Our Ship Is Ready (from Margaret Barry)
Subject: Lyr Req: Margaret Barry's Our Ship Is Ready
Many versions of this song have the rhyme grieve/deceive. But I don't hear Margaret Barry say "deceive". Here is the text she sings as I can get it. Please, help me to complete it. Thank you,. Roberto

Oh, our ship she is ready, oh, to bear away
And come sweet comrades o'er the stormy sea
Oh, my hand and heart I will give to thee
Fare thee well, my love, and remember me

Don't forget, love, do not grieve
For the heart is true and cannot ...
Oh, my hand and heart I will give to thee
Fare thee well, my love, and remember me
