Ingrid Michaelson Far Away Lyrics

Far Away Lyrics

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 will bear three girls all with
strawberry curls, little Ella and

Nelly and Faye.

While I'm combing
their hair, I will catch his warm stare

On our island in the blue bay.



Far away far away, I want to go far away.

To a new life on a new
shore line.

Where the water is 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 pass me then I finally see on this bar stool 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 want to go far away.

To a
new life on a new shore line.

Where the water is blue and the people are
new.

To another island, in another life.



I want to go far
away.

Away away, I want to go far away, away, away

I want to go far
away, far away.



Where the water is blue and the people are new.

To another life, to another life.

To another shore line

In another
life.
