[Verse] The dock's so still moonlight fades to gray Your hand in mine can't find words to stay The sea calls loud and the flags won't wait A promise whispered hearts left to fate [Chorus] I'm going far away far away Over the waves where the skies turn gray But I'll hold you close in every prayer I say I'm going far away far away [Verse 2] Your eyes like anchors pulling me down The tide pulls hard can't turn this around I'll keep your picture tucked near my heart No distance or time can tear us apart [Chorus] I'm going far away far away Over the waves where the skies turn gray But I'll hold you close in every prayer I say I'm going far away far away [Bridge] Letters won't carry the weight of the pain But I'll write you through every storm every rain In the dark of the ocean your light will remain [Chorus] I'm going far away far away Over the waves where the skies turn gray But I'll hold you close in every prayer I say I'm going far away far away
