Well met, well met and my own true love
Well met, well met, said he
I'm just returning from the salt, salt sea
And its all for the love of thee
Come in, come in, my own true love
And have a seat with me
Its been three-fourths
Of a long, long year
Since together we have been
Well I could have married
The kings daughter fair
She would have married me
But I forsaked upon her crowns of gold
And its all for the love of thee
Well met, well met, said he
I'm just returning from the salt, salt sea
And its all for the love of thee
Come in, come in, my own true love
And have a seat with me
Its been three-fourths
Of a long, long year
Since together we have been
Well I could have married
The kings daughter fair
She would have married me
But I forsaked upon her crowns of gold
And its all for the love of thee
