DeadBase lists it also as having been played by Legion Of Mary, but I think this is a mistake. Well I tried to sail the sea of life, I rowed my boat alone Your love meant nothing to me dear, my heart was made of stone To the harbour filled with lonliness my little boat was moored And on the day I first met you I fell right overboard Chorus Till the end of the world rolls round I'll keep on loving you As long as the sun comes up and comes down And the big blue sky comes down to the ground As long as the world goes around and round I'll keep on loving you And whenever you're around my dear my heart just won't keep still And when it comes to kissing you, I'll never get my fill They said I'd never settle down, that I would always roam I could never be the kind for loving wife and home [chorus] So now I know the way I felt was only selfish pride Well I thought my heart was fireproof but you burned your way inside So tell me what I've got to do and tell me how it stands The cards are on the table, dear, my life is in your hands [chorus] Recordings 8 Oct 1973 Breakdown (Old And In The Way) |

Then the "cards are on the table" and I'm left wondering what's in the hand? Probably that deck is a few aces short of a six-pack. Cheerily, Charley Noble |
