Jenny, oh Jenny, come down to the sea Stand in the starlight, and I'll set you free Jenny, oh Jenny, it's over for me Gone is your true love, lost to the sea The veil that you wear, in your grief and despair Hides from the world, all the gold of your hair Throw me your veil now, damp with a tear I'll rest in peace with this souvenir Jenny, oh Jenny, I call from the deep Love is a promise, I cannot keep Your life must go on, for you're young and so fair Give to some boy, all your love and your care Give him the kisses, saved up for me Don't live alone, in my memory Jenny, oh Jenny, I cry from the sea Go find a new love, and love him always Jenny, just as you loved me
