(Traditional)
|
Fare thee well
|
My own true love
|
Farewell for a while
|
I'm going away
|
But I'll be back
|
Though I go 10,000 miles
|
|
10,000 miles
|
My own true love
|
10,000 miles or more
|
The rocks may melt
|
And the seas may burn
|
If I should not return
|
|
Oh don't you see
|
That lonesome dove
|
Sitting on an ivy tree
|
She's weeping for
|
Her own true love
|
As I shall weep for mine
|
|
Oh come ye back
|
My own true love
|
And stay a while with me
|
If I had a friend
|
All on this earth
|
You've been a friend to me
|
