Lyrics: Oh, I'm sailin' away my own true love
I'm sailin' away in the morning
Is there something I can send you from across the sea
From the place that I'll be landing?

No, there's nothin' you can send me, my own true love
There's nothin' I wish to be ownin'
Just carry yourself back to me unspoiled
From across that lonesome ocean

Oh, but I just thought you might want something fine
Made of silver or of golden
Either from the mountains of Madrid
Or from the coast of Barcelona

Oh, but if I had the stars from the darkest night
And the diamonds from the deepest ocean
I'd forsake them all for your sweet kiss
For that's all I'm wishin' to be ownin'

Oh, but I might be gone a long time
And it's only that I'm askin'
Is there something I can send you to remember me by
To make your time more easy passin'

Oh, how can, how can you ask me again
It only brings me sorrow
The same thing I want from you today
I would want again tomorrow

I got a letter on a lonesome day
It was from her ship a-sailin'
Saying I don't know when I'll be comin' back again
It depends on how I'm a-feelin'

Well, if you, my love, must think that-a-way
I'm sure your mind is roamin'
I'm sure your heart is not with me
But with the country to where you're goin'

So take heed, take heed of the western wind
Take heed of the stormy weather
And yes, there's something you can send back to me
Spanish boots of Spanish leather

Boots of Spanish Leather Live at Town Hall NYC April 1963

  • why has the name changed to elston gunn?

  • @louisscott1 Copyright infringement. Two songs i uploaded from this concert have already been deleted this week and they've threatened to take down the rest. I changed the name to "Elston Gunn" because i'm guessing this way their a little harder to find.

  • it couldn't be 1953, he would have been 12!

  • FYI....Elston Gunnn has 3 n's at the end of Gunnn.

  • @Nickelbacker Fuck Nickeback, sir.

  • great beautiful song

  • @giorososkete It's just one of those things you know, Bob himself would say that he was only a man. It's not fair on the great Dylan to be asked to meet his fans, he's just living a family life and growing older as we all do.

  • the heart that doesn't heal....heartbreaker<3

  • I thought "if the melody of this music is the same as Girl of the North Country, boil it now"?

  • the way he says barcelona in this is so mancunian sounding, legend
