We Both Go Down Together

Here on these cliffs of Dover
So high you can't see over
And while your head is spinning
Hold tight it's just beginningYou come from parents' wanton
A childhood rough and rotten
I come from wealth and beauty
Untouched by work or dutyAnd oh, my love, my love
And oh, my love, my love
We both go down togetherI found you, a tattooed tramp
A dirty daughter from the labor camps
I laid you down in the grass of the clearing
You wept but your soul was willingAnd oh, my love, my love
And oh, my love, my love
We both go down togetherAnd my parents will never consent to this love
But I hold your handMeet me on my vast veranda
My sweet untouched Miranda
And while the seagulls are crying
We fall but our souls are flyingAnd oh, my love, my love
And oh, my love, my love
And oh, my love, my love
And oh, my love, my love
We both go down together
