Bright is the morning and brisk is the weather
Steady the wind o'er the sweet singing sea
Proudly, the tall ship arrives in the harbor
Come fare away with me

Marnie, come fare away
Come fare away with me
There's an island of dreams
Over the rolling sea

Sails at the ready, we're bound for Newfoundland
Hasten, my darling, and do not delay
Trees tall and green there, and fish by the millions
Come fare away with me

Marnie, come fare away
Come fare away with me
There's an island of dreams
Over the rolling sea

Leave your belongings, for things do but bind us
Hemmed in, the life here it won't do for me
Fretting and trouble, we'll leave them behind us
There is a land that's free

Marnie, come fare away
Come fare away with me
There's an island of dreams
Over the rolling sea

Lace on your good shoes of stout highland leather
Bring a warm shawl and a cup for the tea
There is a new life, we'll build it together
Come fare away with me

Marnie, come fare away
Come fare away with me
There's an island of dreams
Over the rolling sea
