Now life’s been fair for this here man Blessed with a family all so grand It grieves my heart to end my stay Cause I no more will be passing this way Before too long we’ll meet again But as I wait my love I send And as I lie here on the brae I no more will be passing this way And some day soon I hope and pray We’ll be as one when you’re passing this way - Darcy Broderick
