Irish Waltz

Oh wake up my darlin' the night is old
Dawn is falling on the valley below
Today you must leave for a far distant shore
Oh wake up, the night is old
Hearts will be breaking by the harbour today
Children will be crying and mothers will pray
As sweethearts and fathers and sons sail away
Oh hearts will be breaking today
When you're save over the ocean send back news to me
From the place you'll be working across the great sea
For its patiently waiting here for you I'll be
When youre safe there, send back news to me
On that fine day you come home back to us in spring
Drink will be flowing and the churchbells will ring
There'll be money a plenty and the children will sing
On that fine day you come home in spring
So wake up my darlin' the night is old
Dawn is falling on the valley below
Today you must leave for a far distant shore
Oh wake up, the night is old
