Far Away In Australia
Far Away In Australia
Traditional |
---|
Sweetheart I'm bidding you fond farewell Murmured a youth one day I'm off to 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 the lass The girl I left behind Must we be parted?! his fairer one cried I cannot let you go Still I must leave you, the young man replied But for only a while you know Far away in Australia Soon will fate be kind And I will be ready to welcome the lass The girl I left behind Whether in success or failure I will always be true Proudly each day in that land far away I'll be building a home for you Far away in Australia Soon will fate be kind And I will be ready to welcome the lass The girl I left behind Daily she waits at the old cottage gate Watching the whole day through Till that sweet message comes over the wave And in the new world they're joined as two Far away in Australia Soon will fate be kind And I will be ready to welcome the lass The girl I left behind This page has been viewed 4028 times |
