Asetha Power: Music

I. Take me back to the edge of the pond
Where grandmudder’s house smells of hard bread and cod
Take me back to the edge of the pond
Steep the black tea, tell me what’s all the talk

Chorus:
Take me back to
Old St. John's, Old St.John's
Take me back to
Where I belong, where I belong
Take me back
Take me back, take me back, take me back
Take me back
Home

II. Take me back to the edge of the pond
Let’s line up the shots and pound back the malt
Take me back to the edge of the pond
Let’s play our guitars and sing shanties by heart

III. Take me back to the edge of the pond
Build me a house on a big strip of lawn
Take me back to the edge of the pond
Where the kids can run wild and play all they want

IV. Take me back to the edge of the pond
I’ve been gone so long my accent is lost
Take me back to the edge of the pond
I should never have left to work up along
