Push for PORTER

izquierdaMargate Townderecha

Peter McCluskey

I took my love down to the town of Margate by the roaring sea
I gave to her a golden ring - and asked her if she'd marry me
We stood and watched the ocean free
The waves they crashed in one, two, three
And the tide it swept us out to sea
Will we ever reach the shore once more
Will we ever reach the shore once more

The people of the town they cried that they must save our souls that day
They called upon the sailing boats to set out from the harbour quay
They stood and watched the ocean free
The waves they crashed in one, two, three
And the tide it swept the boats to sea
Will they ever reach the shore once more
Will they ever reach the shore once more

The sailors ploughed the stormy sea, they searched for us both aft and fore
At end of day with no one found, they headed back to home once more
They battled with the ocean free
The waves they crashed in one, two, three
But the tide it kept the boats at sea
Will they ever reach the shore once more
Will we ever reach the shore once more

If you go down into the town of Margate by the sea one day
Don't take your dreams or precious things for they will soon just fade away
Take care and watch the ocean free
The waves will crash in one, two, three
And sweep your dreams into the sea
They will never reach the shore no more
They will never reach the shore no more

I took my love down to the town of Margate by the roaring sea
I gave to her a golden ring - and asked her if she'd marry me
We stood and watched the ocean free
The waves they crashed in one, two, three
And the tide it swept us out to sea
And we never reached the shore no more
And we never reached the shore no more
