Bonnie 'Prince' Billy - Goodbye Dear Old Stepstone lyrics

Oh, 'tis sad to be parted from those that we love Strange faces we see every day Each heart string of mine is broken in time When I think of those dear ones at home Goodbye dear old stepstone, goodbye to my home God bless those I leave with a sigh I'll cherish fond memories when I'm far away To roam o'er this wide world alone I stood on my doorstep one evening and morn The wind whispered by with a moan The fields may be whitening, but I will be gone To roam o'er this wide world alone Goodbye dear old stepstone, goodbye to my home God bless those I leave with a sigh I'll cherish fond memories when I'm far away To roam o'er this wide world alone And I stood on my doorstep when school time was o'er And I wished for the time to go by Now it has pa**ed, and I stand here tonight To bid this old stepstone goodbye Goodbye dear old stepstone, goodbye to my home God bless those I leave with a sigh I'll cherish fond memories when I'm far away To roam o'er this wide world alone To roam o'er this wide world alone
