In another time's forgotten space
your eyes looked from your mother's face,
wildflower seed on sand and stone
may the four winds blow you safely home.

Roll away the dew, roll away the dew
Roll away the dew, roll away the dew

I'll tell you where the four winds dwell,
In Franklin's tower there hangs a bell,
It can ring -- turn night to day
It can ring like fire when you lose your way.

Roll away the dew, roll away the dew
Roll away the dew, roll away the dew

God save the child that rings that bell,
It may have one good ring, baby you can't tell,
One watch by night, one watch by day
If you get confused listen to the music play

Some come to laugh their past away
Some come to make it just one more day;
Whichever way your pleasure tends
If you plant ice, you're gonna harvest wind

Roll away the dew, roll away the dew
Roll away the dew, roll away the dew

In Franklin's tower the four winds sleep,
Like four lean hounds the lighthouse keep,
Wildflower seeds in the sand and wind
May the four winds blow you home again

Roll away the dew, roll away the dew
Roll away the dew, you better roll away the dew
Roll away the dew, you better roll away the dew --roll away!
Roll away the dew, you better roll away the dew --roll away!
Roll away the dew, roll away the dew --roll away!
Roll away the dew, roll away the dew
