Far Away (Desert-Bound Blues)
Today I'm leaving you
I cannot stay, It's getting late
And though I hate to go
I have to leave, the hours won't wait.
It's pointless now to ask
Why do we ever have to part
This is our kind of life
And we've known this right from the start.
Far away I'm going, for long I will be gone
Far away I'm heading, I'll miss you treasured one.
There's sadness in your eyes
Oh, love, there's sorrow in your smile
I'd love to hold you tight
Just once before I start a mile.
Now take care, dear, sleep well
I'll be okay, I'll be alright
Until that day when we
Won't have to part comes warm and bright.
