Lyrics:

Mother, father
Thank you so
For the keeping the fires burning on
Brother, brother
For giving shelter
Throughout those years of war

Go now that it's nearly over
After a long night in wait
I've soothed every soul with a last comfort
But mine, whoa, ooh

I believe in love
And you need to know
That my hearts in your embrace
Now I'm leaving well
But I've been through hell
One last song for my resting place

I grew up on a family farm
Where the wheat grows like gold
I played his music
He forgave my sins
As foretold in the books of old

Go now that it's nearly over
After a long night in wait
I've soothed every soul with a last comfort
But mine, whoa, ooh

I believe in love
And you need to know
That my hearts in your embrace
Now I'm leaving well
But I've been through hell
One last song for my resting place

Dear Boli, enjoy your life
Always know that I'm by your side
These are fortunes
Worse than war
Beyond my reach and I have no more

My father said
Upon his death
Son, don't shed a tear for me
Misses Robinson
My only life
Give it to God, then to thee

Go now that it's nearly over
After a long night in wait
I've soothed every soul with a last comfort
But mine, whoa, ooh

I believe in love
And you need to know
That my hearts in your embrace
Now I'm leaving well
But I've been through hell
One last song for my resting place

Oh, my father said
On his death bed
Son, don't shed those tears for me
Misses Robinson
Lord, you are my love
Give it to God, then to thee

Oh, Maria
I loved you so
The heart grows fonder
As I go

Please think of me
As I sleep
From beyond the ship
To the deep
