FAR AWAY IN AUSTRALIA (Warfield/Byrne) Sweetheart I'm bidding you fond farewell I will be yours someday I'm bound for a new land, my fortune to try And I'm ready to sail away Far away in Australia Soon will fate be kind And I will be ready to welcome at last The girl I left behind "Oh, you can't leave me," this poor maid said "I will not let you go" "But I must leave you," he gently replied "If only for a while, you know" "Now in success or in failure I will always be true, And proudly each day in the land far away I'll be building a home for you." Daily she waits at the old cottage gate Watching the whole day through Then one day a message from over the sea And I'm hoping these words are true Far away in Australia Now has come the time When I am ready to welcome at last The girl I left behind @Australian @parting @home filename[ FARAUST AJS apr97 8note Sheet
