Great Big Sea Fortune's Favour Dream To Live Set off for America far across the ragin' sea From the frozen coves of my island home To the land of liberty I have to leave my girl behind Until I make my way Oh Molly dear please wait for me I'll come back for you some day We landed hard in Boston and I'd never seen the like A small boat boy from around the bay In this sea of shining lights Two days in I got a job Building towers of high steel I had to learn, to not look down And I quickly learned to kneel All I need is one good nights sleep In your loving arms, to mend We sleep to dream And we dream to live Will I live to love you again I saved every cent I could But the months turned into years Then a letter came from Molly and confirmed my deepest fears She would no longer wait for me, she'd found a better man I might have been in America, but my heart was broken In Newfoundland My working days are over now And my children have all grown I did the best with what I had But some days I feel alone I often wonder where you are Do you still know my name Deep inside this old man's heart There's a love that still remains |
