Paddy Goes to Holyhead - Far Away Lyrics

All is done that may be done, I stand across the main
I'll bet all my money there´s no way back again
A chance as good as any, I´m glad for what I´ve done
I stand across the water far away I´m on the run

I rose up right and early and the lights are dim and low
The breeze could tell you my tales while all the rivers flow
The good time I´ve had plenty in this race that I have run
I stand across the water far away I´m on the run

The breath of air is howling catch the waves as they roll out
Come sing a song of freedom, come sing it clear and loud
A long long time to travel since this journey had begun
I stand across the water far away I´m on the run

Far away the river flows forever on
The sun goes down and the waves roll back the tide
Yesterday is done and my time has come
Far away I´m on the run

Far away the river flows forever on
The sun goes down and the waves roll back the tide
Yesterday is done and my time has come
Far away I´m on the run
