When Ye Go Away

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Now he's brought down the rain

And the indian summer is through

(in the morning you'll be following your trail again

Fair play to you

/

You'll be leaving, pretty darling, in the morning-time

If I know you)

You ain't calling me to join you

And I'm spoken for anyway

(but I will cry when ye go away

I will cry when ye go away

/

But you'll be killing my heart when ye go away

You'll be killing my heart when ye go away)

(your beauty is familiar

And your voice is like a key

/

Your beauty is a legend

And your voice is like a melody)

(that opens up my soul

/

That plays upon my soul)

And torches up a fire inside of me

(your coat is made of magic

And around your table angels play

/

Your shoes are made of magic

And your footstep is the break of day

/

I must have known you in another life

In another age)

I will cry when ye go away

I will cry when ye go away

(river road reel)

Somebody/el torro/mike rogers left their whisky

And the night is very young

I've got some/much to say and more to tell

And the words will soon be spilling from my tongue

I will rave and I will ramble

I'll do everything but make you stay

Then I will cry when ye go away

I will cry when ye go away

(river road reel)

When ye go away...

When ye go away...
