Far Away by Ingrid Michealson

I will live my life as a lobsterman's wife on an island in the blue bay.
He will take care of me, he will smell like the sea, And close to my heart he'll always stay.
I will bear three girls all with strawberry curls, little Ella andNelly and Faye.
While I'm combing their hair, I will catch his warm stare On our island in the blue bay.

Far away far away, I want to go far away.
To a new life on a new shore line.Where the water is blue and the people are new.
To another island, in another life.

There's a boy next to me and he never will be anything but a boy at the bar.
And I think he's the tops, he's where everything stops.
How I love to love him from afar.
When he walks right pass me then I finally see on this bar stool I can't stay.
So I'm taking my frown to a far distant town
On an island in the blue bay.

Far away far away, I want to go far away.
To a new life on a new shore line. Where the water is blue and the people are new.
To another island, in another life.
I want to go far away. Away away, I want to go far away, away, away I want to go far away, far away.
Where the water is blue and the people are new.
To another life, to another life.
To another shore line
In another life.
