I Do Love Her So Lyrics - The Boatman's Call - Nick Cave

The 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 

Through every breath that I breathe 

And every place I go 

There is hand that protects me 

And I do love her so 

There will always be suffering 

It flows through life like water 

I put my hand over hers 

Down in the lime tree arbour 

The boatman he has gone 

And 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 

There is hand that protects me 

And I do love her so
