Lyrics
FAR AWAY IN AUSTRALIA
SWEETHEART IT'S TIME I WOULD BID YOU GOOD-BYE, MURMUR THE YOUTH ONE DAY, I'M OFF TO A NEW LAND MY FORTUNE TO TRY AND I'M READY TO SAIL AWAY.
CHORUS: FAR AWAY IN AUSTRALIA SOON WILL FAITH BE KIND AND I WILL BE READY TO WELCOME THE LAS, THE GIRL I LEFT BEHIND.
MUST WE BE PARTED THIS FAIR ONE SHE SIGHED I CANNOT LET YOU GO, STILL I MUST LEAVE YOU HE GENTLY REPLIED BUT FOR ONLY A WHILE YOU KNOW.
CHORUS: FAR AWAY IN AUSTRALIA SOON WILL FAITH BE KIND AND I WILL BE READY TO WELCOME THE LAS, THE GIRL I LEFT BEHIND
IF IN SUCCESS OR IN FAILURE I WILL BE ALWAYS TRUE PROUDLY EACH DAY IN A LAND FAR AWAY I'LL BE BUILDING A HOME FOR YOU.
CHORUS: FAR AWAY IN AUSTRALIA SOON WILL FAITH BE KIND AND I WILL BE READY TO WELCOME THE LAS, THE GIRL I LEFT BEHIND
DAILY SHE WAITS AT THE OLD COTTAGE GATE WATCHING THE WHOLE DAY THROUGH TILL A SWEET LITTLE MESSAGE COMES OVER THE WAVES AND I'M HOPING THESE WORDS WERE TRUE.
CHORUS: FAR AWAY IN AUSTRALIA SOON WILL FAITH BE KIND AND I WILL BE READY TO WELCOME THE LAS, THE GIRL I LEFT BEHIND
