Toor A Lay

Oh, the harvest, it is home and it's now that I must roam
To try and seek me fortune in a far and distant land

[Chorus]
The ship, it's on the quay, they're waiting there for me
Farewell, my love until we meet again
I will love you in the morning, just as the day was dawning
I love you while the skies are blue or gray
In the spring when trees are budding
When autumn leaves are falling
Or when the evening comes around:
I love you, toor a lay
Toor a loo, toor a lay, toor a loor a lay
Toor a loo, toor a lay, toor a loor a lay

I'll be true to you, my love, sure, as the star shines up above
That guides a ship that takes me to a far and distant land

[Chorus]
The ship, it's on the quay, they're waiting there for me
Farewell, my love until we meet again
I will love you in the morning, just as the day was dawning
I love you while the skies are blue or gray
In the spring when trees are budding
When autumn leaves are falling
Or when the evening comes around:
I love you, toor a lay
Toor a loo, toor a lay, toor a loor a lay
Toor a loo, toor a lay, toor a loor a lay

So farewell, my love, goodbye, now, do not weep or cry
I'll send you back the fare from this far and distant land

[Chorus]
The ship, it's on the quay, they're waiting there for me
Farewell, my love until we meet again
I will love you in the morning, just as the day was dawning
I love you while the skies are blue or gray
In the spring when trees are budding
When autumn leaves are falling
Or when the evening comes around:
I love you, toor a lay
Toor a loo, toor a lay, toor a loor a lay
Toor a loo, toor a lay, toor a loor a lay
