Cobwebs & Dust - Gordon Lightfoot
intro   A  
AIsland goodbye, Disland goodbye
We been Atoo long together, my Eisland and AI
A'Cross the blue sea, 'Dcross the blue sea
We been Atoo long together, my Eisland and Ame
Cobwebs and dust, cobwebs and dust
I hate to leave you but leave you, I must
Float through the sky, float through the sky
We been too long together, my cobwebs and I
Troubles goodbye, troubles goodbye
We been too long together, my troubles and I
'Cross the blue sea, 'cross the blue sea
We been too long together, my troubles and me
Cobwebs and dust, cobwebs and dust
I hate to leave you but leave you, I must
Float through the sky, float through the sky
We been too long together, my cobwebs and I
Unlock the gate, unlock the gate
Lower the drawbridge, the hour is late
Whom shall it be? Whom shall it be?
We been too long together, my drawbridge and me
Cobwebs and dust, cobwebs and dust
I hate to leave you but leave you, I must
Float through the sky, float through the sky
We been too long together, my cobwebs and I
Tear down the walls, tear down the walls
Gather my treasure and scatter it all
'Cross the blue sea, 'cross the blue sea
We been too long together, my treasure and me
Run to her side, run to her side
Run to my island and make her yer bride
Whom shall it be? Whom shall it be?
We been too long together, my island and me
