The Last Farewell
There's a ship lies rigged and ready in the harbor
- There's a ship lies rigged and ready in the harbor
- Tomorrow for old england she sails
- Far away from your land of endless sunshine
- To my land full of rainy skies and gales
- And I shall be aboard that ship tomorrow
- Though my heart is full of tears at this farewell
- For you are beautiful I have loved you dearly
- More dearly than the spoken word can tell
- For you are beautiful I have loved you dearly
- More dearly than the spoken word can tell
- I've heard there's a wicked war a-blazing
- And the taste of war I know so very well
- Even now I see the foreign flag a-raising
- Their guns on fire as we sail into hell
- I have no fear of death it brings no sorrow
- But how bitter will be this last farewell
- For you are beautiful I have loved you dearly
- More dearly than the spoken word can tell
- For you are beautiful I have loved you dearly
- More dearly than the spoken word can tell
- Though death and darkness gather all about me
- My ship be torn apart upon the seas
- I shall smell again the fragrance of these islands
- And the heaving waves that brought me once to thee
- And should I return home safe again to england
- I shall watch the english mist roll through the dale
- For you are beautiful I have loved you dearly
- More dearly than the spoken word can tell
- For you are beautiful I have loved you dearly
- More dearly than the spoken word can tell
