I will live my life As a lobsterman's wife On an island in the blue bay He will take care of me He will smell like the sea And close to my heart he'll always stay I'll bear three girls All with strawberry curls Luella and Nelly and Fae While I'm combing their hair I will catch his warm stare On our island in the blue bay Far away, far away I wanna go far away To a new life On a new shoreline Where the world turns blue And the people are new To another island In another life There's a boy next to me And he never will be Anything but a boy at the bar And I think he's the tops He's where everything stops How I love to love him From afar When he walks right past me Then I finally see On this barstool I can't stay So I'm taking my frown To a far distant town On an island in the blue bay Far away, far away I wanna go far away To a new life On a new shoreline Where the world turns blue And the people are new To another island In another life I wanna go far away, away, away I wanna go far away, away, away I wanna go far away Away Away Where the world turns blue And the people are new To another life To another life To another shoreline In another life
