Lyrics
When I depart little darling
Will you promise to be true
Will you hold me as tight again
Will think of sometime
Will you pray for the sunshine
Will you know that I only love you
In the dark months of winter
When the cold wind blows
And the trees are all bent with snow
When my heart aches the hardest
When I know you're the farthest
Asking when am I coming home
(Ooh I sail away
Return another day
The time is nigh
I say goodbye
I'll come back again)
Can you hear the wolves howling
At the man in the moon
Do you see the same man that I do
Do you see the stars fall
Do you miss me at all
Or do you wish that I'd leave you alone
If the sunlight appears
On the hills again
If the dew doth leave the ground
As spring time is sure
I'll return to your door
And if you'll have me no more I'll roam
(Ooh I sail away
Return another day
The time is nigh
I say goodbye
I'll come back again)
