[00:00.00]Farewell - Kate Rusby
[00:12.75]One dark and stormy winters night
[00:17.06]
[00:19.04]The snow lay on the ground
[00:22.66]
[00:25.13]The sailor boy strode on the wharf
[00:30.33]
[00:30.96]And the ship was eastward bound
[00:34.21]
[00:36.96]His sweetheart standing by his side
[00:42.96]Shed many a bitter tear
[00:46.78]
[00:49.30]And as he pressed her to his breast
[00:54.81]He whispered in her ear
[01:00.13]
[01:01.29]Was any fail the ship set sail
[01:06.41]
[01:07.53]His love was standing by
[01:10.90]
[01:13.51]She watched the vessel out of sight
[01:18.61]
[01:19.31]And the tears bedimmed her eye
[01:23.30]
[01:25.49]She prayed to him and heaven above
[01:31.42]To guide him on his way
[01:35.35]
[01:37.09]And all the parting words that night
[01:43.35]Still echoed loud round the bay
[01:47.12]

[01:54.56]
