Lyrics
If I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
Would you marry me anyway?
Would you have my baby?
If you were a carpenter
And I were a lady
I'd marry you anyway
I'd have your baby.
If a tinker were my trade
Would I still find you
I'd be carryin' the pots you made
Followin' behind you.
Save your love through loneliness
Save your love through sorrow
I'm givin' you my onliness
Give me your tomorrows.
If I were a miller
At a mill-wheel grindin'
Would you miss your colored blouse
And your soft shoes shinin'?
If you were a miller
At a mill-wheel grindin'
I not miss my colored blouse
And my soft shoes shinin'.
Save your love through loneliness
Save your love through sorrow
I'm givin' you my onliness
Give me your tomorrows.
If I worked my hands in wood
Would you still love me?
I'd answered you yes i would!
And would you knock me above me?
If I were a carpenter
And you were a lady
I'd marry you anyway
I'd have your baby.
Save your love through loneliness
Save your love through sorrow
I'm givin' you my onliness
Give me your tomorrows.
