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.
