go your way - anne briggs

Drawing water from the well
And spilling over on the grass.
Walking home my heart is filled with pain.
You go your way, my love,
You go your way, my love,
You go your way, my love.

And as I wander through the trees
I'm picking up the windy leaves,
I wonder where you may be sleeping now.
You go your way, my love,
You go your way, my love,
You go your way, my love.

And may the west wind speed your travels
And the sun be on your hair.
And make believe I'm with you
All over there, my love,
You go your way, my love,
You go your way, my love.

Friends and strangers bring stories
When asked where you might be.
Magic stories they have brought to me.
You go your way, my love,
You go your way, my love,
You go your way, my love.

And as I sit mending clothes
That you will never ever wear,
Looking daily for you I do prepare.
You go your way, my love,
You go your way, my love,
You go your way, my love.

Have you ever heard the version of this song by the late folk singer, Sandy Denny?

Actually I prefer Sandy's version to Anne's one. 

It is on one of Sandy's albums but don't think there is a version of Sandy singing it on Youtube.

Absolutely great!!. Nice to hear such a great version of Anne's song. Very good indeed.
