The fire is out, the moon is down The parting glass is dry and done And I must go and leave this town Before the rising of the sun. For long is the road and far's the mile Before I rest my soul again With girls that weep and girls that smile And all the ways and words of men. For some there are, who will not bide But wander to the journey's end Won`t take a girl to be a bride Take no man to be a friend. For long is the road and far's the mile Before I rest my soul again With girls that weep and girls that smile And all the ways and words of men. And when I'm done with wandering I'll sit beside the road and weep For all the songs I did not sing And promises I did not keep.
