Paddy Goes To Holyhead - Far Away

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

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 lo
