lyrics

Farewell to you my dearest friends, I never know quite what to say.
For I always depart with the heaviest heart and I’ll be gone by the breaking of day.
So farewell to you my dearest friends, soon I must be on my way.

And farewell to you my pain and pride, I’ll process your weight in due time.
And songs I will write of the heart and the fight, for the folk to whom this life’s been unkind.
So farewell to you my pain and pride, I’m sailing away on the tide.

And farewell to you my troubled mind, you’ll hold me enslaved no more.
The wild wind has changed now it’s howling my name, and it’s high time I heeded the call.
So farewell to you my troubled mind, I’m shaking you off at the door.

Farewell to you my dearest friends, I think I now know what to say.
Great battles we’ve fought, to my knees I was brought, my strength all but withered away.
So farewell to you my dearest friends, soon I might be back to stay.
