The Wailin Jennys - Long Time Traveller


These fleeting charms of earth

Farewell your springs of joy are dry

My soul now seeks another home

A brighter world on high


I'm a long time travelling here below

I'm a long time travelling away from home

I'm a long time travelling here below

To lay this body down


Farewell kind friends whose tender care

Has long engaged my love

Your fond embrace I now exchange

For better friends above


I'm a long time travelling here below

I'm a long time travelling away from home

I'm a long time travelling here below

To lay this body down
