FAREWELL

(1999, the Secret Commonwealth)
Words by Jack Hunter Daves, Jr.
Music by Malin Timbs

The sea dragon ships boldly set sail
At the water’s edge, we said our farewell
My true love looked fine in his new coat of mail
And I wished him a journey without rain or gale.

The king of Sweden had called them to sea
At the water’s edge, we said our farewell
But Norway’s sons did not hide or flee
And spears filled the sky like ravens set free.

On Norway’s coast, my true love did die
At the water’s edge, we said our farewell
And in the dark earth, his body will lie
And I hide my tears ‘neath the cold winter sky.

We dreamed about children and he talked of a farm
At the water’s edge, we said our farewell
I miss his laugh and the strength of his arms
And I curse the king who took him to harm.
