Far Away - song lyrics 
American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
FAR AWAY. 
Where is now the merry party I remember long ago? Laughing round the Christmas fires, Brightened by its ruddy glow; Or in Summer's balmy evenings, In the fields upon the hay? They have all dispers'd and wander'd Far away, They have all dispers'd and wander'd Far away, far away. 
Some have gone to lands far distant, And with strangers made their home, Some upon the world of waters All their lives are forced to roam; Some are gone from us forever, Longer here they might not stay. They have reached a fairer region, Far away, They have reached a fairer region, Far away, far away. 
There is still some few remaining Who remind us of the past, But the change as all things here Nothing in this world can last. Years roll on and pass forever, What is coming, who can say? Ere this closes many may be Far away, Ere this closes many may be Far away, far away.
