"I'm going away at eventide.
Across the wide and the rolling sea.
I bid you stay, stay here by my side,
And share a last farewell with me.
Through snow clad mountains, proud and tall,
Or a thousand miles cross the burning sands,
Our last farewell, then will I recall,
When I'm alone in a far off land.
A wandring song is all I know,
Yet I love you more, more than words can tell.
I hear the call, and I'm bound to go.
I leave you now, with a last farewell.
I leave you now with a last farewell."
The Last Farewell - New Christy Minstrels
Finally finished this massive commission for Martin, his inspiration came from these lyrics.
