|
So, fare the well |
|
My own true love |
|
I think of you night and day. |
|
Fare well to old Ireland |
|
Good bye to you Banna Strand |
|
No time to look back |
|
Facing the wind |
|
Fighting the waves |
|
May heaven protect us all |
|
From cold hunger and angry swans |
|
Pray I won't be lost |
|
Winds in the sails carry me safe |
|
[Chorus:] |
|
So, fare the well |
|
My own true love |
|
I'll think of you night and day |
|
A place in my mind |
|
You will surely find |
|
Although I am so far away |
|
And when I'm alone |
|
Far away from home |
|
I'll think of the good times once more |
|
Until I can make it back |
|
Some day |
|
Here to Paddy's green shamrock shore |
|
Out now on the ocean deep |
|
Ships noise makes it hard to sleep |
|
Tears fill up my eyes |
|
The image of you |
|
Won't go away |
|
[Chorus] |
|
New York is in sight at least |
|
My heart it is pounding fast |
|
Trying to be brave |
|
Wishing you near |
|
By my side |
|
As one |
|
[Chorus] |
