We Are Messengers - The Parting Glass lyrics

[Intro] I'm not a perfect man Not even a good man But I'm not the sum of my mistakes Or the sum of all the good things I've done The truth lies somewhere between the two But I'm a man who has been loved well Both by God and by his family And I'm a grateful man So friends, walk slow, go easy And love well [Verse 1] Of all the money that I had I spent it in good company And all the harm I ever did Alas, it was to none but me And all I've done for want of wit To memory now, I can't recall So fill to me the parting glass Good night, and joy be with you all [Verse 2] Of all the comrades that I had They'rе sorry for my going away And all the sweethearts that I had They'd wish mе one more day to stay But since it fell into my lot That I should rise and you should not I'll gently rise and softly call "Goodnight, and joy be with you all" [Refrain] I'll gently rise and softly call "Goodnight, and joy be with you all"
