🌸 Lyrics: A Girl You Don't Meet Every Day
(Traditional, arr. Gothard Sisters)
Well my name is Jane Stewart, I'm a Cannington lass
And today I have come a long way

Chorus:
So be easy and free
when you're walking with me
I'm a girl you don't meet every day

If you come close to me
I will sing just for thee
I have done so on many a day

Chorus

🌸 Lyrics: Leaving of Liverpool (traditional)
Fare thee well to you my own true love
I am sailing far far away
I am bound for Californi-ay
And I hope that I return someday

Chorus
So fare thee well, my own true love
When I return united we will be
It's not the leaving of Liverpool that grieves me
But my darling when I think of thee

I am bound on a Yankee sailing ship
Davy Crockett is her name
And her captain's name is Burgess
And they say that she's a floating shame

Chorus

Oh the sun is on the harbor, love
And I wish that I could remain
For I know it will be a long long time
Before I will see you again

Chorus
Chorus

🌸 Lyrics: Planets (by Kate Rusby)
I can see the planets are aligning for me
I cannot read them for the future's gone along behind me

Chorus
Through the world I am wandering, wandering
Soft breeze blowing, I am wandering now
Through the world I am wandering, wandering
These are the days I live now

On nights like these I could fly up to the sky above me
Like Superman, I would change the course of earth below me

Chorus
