COME FARE AWAY Bright is the morning and brisk is the weather; Steady the wind o'er the sweet singing sea. Proudly, the tall ship arrives in the harbor; Come fare away with me. Marnie, come fare away, Come fare away with me; There's an island of dreams Over the rolling sea. Sails at the ready, we're bound for Newfoundland; Hasten, my darling, and do not delay. Trees tall and green there, and fish by the millions; Come fare away with me. CHORUS Leave your belongings, for things do but bind us; Hemmed in, the life here it won't do for me. Fretting and trouble, we'll leave them behind us; There is a land that's free. CHORUS Lace on your good shoes of stout highland leather; Bring a warm shawl and a cup for the tea. There is a new life, we'll build it together; Come fare away with me. CHORUS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Words by Jean Ritchie, melody adapted from an old hymn. Copyright Geordie Music Publishing, Inc. Recorded by Ed Trickett on "The Telling Takes Me Home," FSI-46 1972. @travel @love filename[ FAREAWAY TUNE FILE: FAREAWAY CLICK TO PLAY TUNE FILE: FAREAWY2 CLICK TO PLAY DC |
