'Neath these trees

Towering to the sky

I have walked the years



Forest home

I have heard the call

And must say good-bye



Fare thee well

I sail upon the dawn

To another world

That beckons me



Chorus:

Hold to me closer

While you tarry

Here with me



The sea bell is chiming

My ship sets sail

Farewell to thee



Here we stand

Waiting though we know

That the time has come



Call to me in dreams

I will come to you

And we'll walk once more

On this silver shore



Chorus:

Hold to me closer

While you tarry

Here with me



The sea bell is chiming

My ship sets sail

Farewell to thee
