[soft melancholy male vocal]
My sweet love,
Eleanor Dove,
Sing and dance for me, my covey girl,
Take a chance on me, my covey girl,
Love and romance with me, my covey girl,
Eleanor Dove,
My sweet love…
[soft melancholy male vocal]
My love is for the keeping,
Eleanor Dove,
If I’m chosen at the reaping,
Promise me love,
You won’t spend your summers weeping,
Imagine me,
A dream away while you’re sleeping,
Until then…
[instrumental acoustic guitar break]
Hold onto my love, my love,
my covey girl, Eleanor Dove.
Hold onto my love, my love,
My covey girl, Eleanor Dove.
[instrumental acoustic guitar break]
[upbeat male vocal]
Even if I’m far away,
Eleanor Dove,
I vow, in my heart you shall stay,
Eleanor Dove,
If you miss me look to the horizon,
Eleanor Dove,
Where the geese are flyin’,
Eleanor Dove,
In days of disarray, let the watercolours run and play,
Eleanor Dove,
I’ll return to you someday,
Until then…
[instrumental acoustic guitar break]
Hold onto my love, my love,
my covey girl, Eleanor Dove.
Hold onto my love, my love,
My covey girl, Eleanor Dove.
