lyrics

I've been many times before
In this old little pub
But I'm still a stranger in these parts
Each season I come and go
Like the gull flying north
And believe you me the harvested fall
Is the saddest time of all
Come sit with me now
Raise a glass and we shall sing together

chorus❦
One for the pain in my heart
Two for these aching bones
Three for the girl who is waiting for me
And four for the journey home

I've seen several times before
Your kindly old face
Will you kill some time for a new friend
These travels they take their toll
I'm not so young as before
But I cannot give up until I can send
Some money home again
So come sit with me now
Raise a glass and we shall sing together

repeat chorus❦

Come sing with me now
One last time before tomorrow rolls in

repeat chorus❦
