Far Away Lyrics:
I will live my life as a lobsterman's wife on an island in the blue bay.
He will take care of me, he will smell like the sea,
And close to my heart he'll always stay.

I will bear three girls all with strawberry curls, little Ella and
Nelly and Faye.
While I'm combing their hair, I will catch his warm stare
On our island in the blue bay.

Far away far away, I want to go far away.
To a new life on a new shore line.
Where the water is blue and the people are new.
To another island, in another life.

There's a boy next to me and he never will be anything but a boy at the bar.
And I think he's the tops, he's where everything stops.
How I love to love him from afar.

When he walks right pass me then I finally see on this bar stool I can't stay.
So I'm taking my frown to a far distant town
On an island in the blue bay.

Far away far away, I want to go far away.
To a new life on a new shore line.
Where the water is blue and the people are new.
To another island, in another life.

I want to go far away.
Away away, I want to go far away, away, away
I want to go far away, far away.

Where the water is blue and the people are new.
To another life, to another life.
To another shore line
In another life.

this is probably my favorite song by her. I love her voice.

[jeans]

This song makes me want to get married to a rugged fisherman and wear all his oversized fisherman sweaters and hang freshly washed laundry outside to dry in the wind as we live in a little cottage by the sea

[nehalthapliyal]

Her voice is beauty and her lyrics are sublime.
Love from India 🇮🇳 ❤️

My wife just took a job on a boat and I miss her so much. I want to live on the water and wait for her to come home to me.

[aurora]

My favourite song by her, so sweet and happy to listen to her day dream far away :)

[leslieboeckmann]

Sounds silly but this album is what got me through a hard break up and this song is helping me through another

[brunoIreland]

[skuntanksnuggler]

I am in love with a sailor and we plan to get married. This is my song for him, it makes him smile every time. He doesn't fish for lobsters, but close enough. <3

[kenzabouayad]
