Traditional - Fare Thee Well lyrics

[Chorus] Fare thee well my own true love And farewell for a while I'm going away, but I'll be back If I go ten thousand miles [Bridge] Ten thousand miles, my own true love Ten thousand miles or more And 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 Just as I shall weep for mine Oh come back my own true love And stay a while with me For if I had a friend all on this earth You've been a friend to me [Chorus]
