10,000 Miles

Fare thee well
My own true love
Farewell for a while
I'm going away
But i'll be back
Though i go 10,000 miles

10,000 miles
My own true love
10,000 miles or more
The rocks may melt
And the seas may burn
If i should not return

Oh don't you see
That lonesome dove
Sitting on an ivy tree
She's weeping for
Her own true love
As i shall weep for mine

Oh come ye back
My own true love
And stay a while with me
If i had a friend
All on this earth
You've been a friend to me
