'Fare thee well! '
The children cry,
As they watch the ships sail away.
One by one, men fell,
Turn promise to lie,
Never again to see the day.
I watch in anguish,
As my heart it breaks,
Waiting for her to return.
I hope and I wish,
For all of our sakes,
That when I see the ship she's at it's stern.
So follow this rule,
When you live and die,
And you hear the toll of the bell.
For so did I,
And happy am I not,
The rule is 'Never Say Farewell.'
