Farewell |
One dark and stormy winters night |
The snow lay on the ground |
The sailor boy strode on the wharf |
And the ship was eastward bound |
His sweetheart standing by his side |
Shed many a bitter tear |
And as he pressed her to his breast |
He whispered in her ear |
Was any fail the ship set sail |
His love was standing by |
She watched the vessel out of sight |
And the tears bedimmed her eye |
She prayed to him and heaven above |
To guide him on his way |
And all the parting words that night |
Still echoed loud round the bay |
Farewell Farewell my own true love |
May this grief for me till sore |
And you will be my guiding light |
Till I return once more |
My thoughts will be with you my love |
When the storm is raging high |
So farewell, farewell, remember me |
Thy faithful sailor boy, thy faithful sailor boy |
So farewell farewell my own true love |
On earth we live no longer |
Patiently tell heaven above |
I’ll be back to tell you sure |
I hope to meet you in the land |
From far beyond the sky |
Where you know what the parts are from |
Thy faithful sailor boy |
This grief it makes me sore |
And you will be my guiding light |
Till I return once more |
My thoughts will be with you my love |
When the storm is raging high |
So farewell, farewell, remember me |
My faithful sailor boy, my faithful sailor boy |
My faithful sailor boy |
