Ingrid Michaelson - Far Away lyrics

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 and Nelly 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
