I Do Love Her So (lime Tree Arbour) Lyrics - Nick Cave & The Bad Seed

Boatman calls from the lake 

A lone loon dives upon the water 

I put my hand over her 

Down in the lime tree arbour 

The wind in the trees is whispering 

Whispering low that I love her 

She puts her hand over mine 

Down in the lime tree arbour 

Every breath that I breathe 

And every place I go 

There is a hand that protects me 

And I do love her so 

There always be suffering 

It flows through life like water 

I put my hand over her 

Down in the lime tree arbour 

The boatman he has gone 

The loons have flown for cover 

She puts her hand over mine 

Down in the lime tree arbour 

Through every word that I speak 

And every thing I know 

Well, there is a hand that protects me 

And I do love her so
