Fiddler's Green - Farewell lyrics

I met you at the station
I recall it was the worst of days
I looked at you, you looked at me
And I was lost inside your gaze
We were dreaming of a bigger life
The world beyond the city gate
Got on the train to somewhere new
And turned around our fate

Say goodbye to all the sorrow, tomorrow
We will follow
The footsteps of the brave who rushed
To glory of the grave
We're fortune's favored lovers
Nothing like the others
The more we risk, the more we win
So let it all begin

You asked me if I'd come with you
To step into the great unknown
To do things we had never done
That chilled us to the bone fighting demons
Waging wars against the hate and strife
Race toward a better day
And lead a fearless life

Say goodbye to all the sorrow, tomorrow
We will follow
The footsteps of the brave who rushed
To glory of the grave
We're fortune's favored lovers
Nothing like the others
The more we risk, the more we win
So let it all begin
Farewell, my town, farewell to you
Our final destination is far away from home
Farewell, goodbye, we tie our shoes
We mustn't wait a single day, come on
Let's get away

Grab your bags, let's cut and run
Just leave this mess
'cause we're heading for the sun
Hear the call, feel the air
Our feet will take us far to
The place where we belong
It's the courage of despair
Get away, get away
Now it's time to say farewell

We're not gonna hide away
We won't do what we were told
Take the train to anywhere
Bound to die before we're old

Say goodbye to all the sorrow, tomorrow
We will follow
The footsteps of the brave who rushed
To glory of the grave
We're fortune's favored lovers
Nothing like the others
The more we risk, the more we win
So let it all begin
Farewell, my town, farewell to you
Our final destination is far away from home
Farewell, goodbye, we tie our shoes
We mustn't wait a single day, come on
Let's get away
