Toor A Lay by The Wolfe Tones Lyrics

Oh, the harvest, it is home
And it's now that I must roam
To try and seek me fortune
In a far and distant land

(Chorus)
The ship, it's on the quay
They're waiting there for me
Farewell, my love
Until we meet again
I will love you in the morning
Just as the day was dawning
I love you while the skies
Are blue or gray
In the spring when trees are budding
When autumn leaves are falling
Or when the evening comes around
I love you, toor a lay
Toor a loo, toor a lay
Toor a loor a lay
Toor a loo, toor a lay
Toor a loor a lay
I love you true my love
Sure as the star shines up above
That guides a ship
That takes me to a far and distant land
(Chorus)
The ship is on the quay
They're waiting there for me
Farewell, my love
Until we meet again
I will love you in the morning
Just as the day was dawning
I love you while the skies
Are blue or gray
In the spring when trees are budding
When autumn leaves are falling
Or when the evening comes around
I love you, toor a lay
Toor a loo, toor a lay
Toor a loor a lay
Toor a loo, toor a lay
Toor a loor a lay

So farewell, my love, goodbye
Now, do not weep or cry
I'll send you back the fare
From this far and distant land

(Chorus)
The ship is on the quay
They're waiting there for me
Farewell, my love
Until we meet again
I will love you in the morning
Just as the day was dawning
I love you while the skies
Are blue or gray
In the spring when trees are budding
When autumn leaves are falling
Or when the evening comes around
I love you, toor a lay
Toor a loo, toor a lay
Toor a loor a lay
Toor a loo, toor a lay
Toor a loor a lay
