Love Don't Roam

Well, I've roamed about this earth
With just a suitcase in my hand
And I've met some bog-eyed joe's
I've met the blessed, I've met the damned

But of all the strange, strange creatures
In the air, at sea, on land
Oh, my girl, my girl, my precious girl
I love you, you understand

So, reel me in, my precious girl
Come on, take me home
'Cause my body's tired of travelling
And my heart don't wish to roam. No, no

I have wandered, I have rambled
I have crossed this crowded sphere
And I've seen a mass of problems
That I long to disappear

Now, all I have's this anguished heart
For you have vanished too
Oh, my girl, my girl, my precious girl
Just what is this man to do?

So, reel me in, my precious girl
Come on, take me home
'Cause my body's tired of travelling
And my heart don't wish to roam

Yeah, reel me in, my precious girl
Come on, take me home
'Cause my body's tired of travelling
And my heart don't wish to roam. No, no

Well, you took me in, you stole my heart
I cannot roam no more
Because love, it stays within you
It does not wash up on a shore

But a fighting man forgets each cut
Each knock, each bruise, each fall
But a fighting man cannot forget
Why his love don't roam no more

Oh, reel me in, my precious girl
Come on, take me home
'Cause my body's tired of travelling
And my heart don't wish to roam

Yeah, reel me in, my precious girl
Come on, take me home
'Cause my body's tired of travelling
And my heart don't wish to roam

Yeah, walk with me, my love, my love
Walk tall, walk proud, walk far
For you know my love, you are, you are
You are my shining star

Walk with me, oh my love
Walk tall, walk proud, walk far
For you know my love, you are, you are
You are my shining star, you are, you are

Yeah!

Reel me in, my precious girl
Come on, take me home
My body's tired of travelling
And my heart don't wish to roam
