Holdstock And MacLeod

Farewell now, Indiana
Your green land's been good to me
There I've travelled, there I've settled
There I've raised up my family
But the cord has never severed
And the longing each day has grown
So tomorrow I'll be leaving
For the land I call my home

All my friends, say I am crazy
Going back to such poverty
Oh America is, so they say now
The land of opportunity
But the ??!! runs so swiftly
And the heron slowly flies
There are treasures from my homeland
Oh your money cannot buy

And while our ship lies in the harbo(u)r
I look back upon that shore
I feel sadness that I'm leaving
Your green land forevermore
And while ourship lies on the ocean
And each day we're out on the sea
All the dreams I had for years now
Draw nearer reality

So fare well now, Indiana
Your green land's been good to me
