[Intro]
C
[Verse]
CI must leave, my work is Amover,
From this Fland, I'll go no Cmore
CNow the night must be my Amlover
But there are Fghosts outside my Cdoor
[Verse]
CThey haunt me still, from different Amplaces
Through a thousand Fsongs, and a million Cwords
CA hundred names, forgotten Amfaces
That still live Fon, while they are Cheard
[Verse]
CMy dearest dear, the time draws Amnear
When I and Fyou I must surely Cpart
CBut no one knows the hidden Amgrief
In my Fpoor old aching Cheart
[names of folk singers spoken in back ground]
[Verse]
CI must leave, my work is Amover
From the Fland, I'll go no Cmore,
CNow the night must be my Amlover
But there are Fghosts outside my Cdoor
[Verse]
CThey haunt me still, from different Amplaces
Through a thousand Fsongs, and a million Cwords
CA hundred names, forgotten Amfaces
That still live Fon, while they are Cheard....
[Outro]
