Gone away, gone away forever
 
 Not to come back home
 
 I did stay all the night through with you
 
 Without knowing you'd gone
 
  
  Without time for the world to breathe on
 
 The changing dust it woke
 
 Glimpses of all the life you poured out
 
 Till the vessel broke
  
 
 Don't know if I'll see you
 
 When it's my turn to come home
 
 Don't know if I'll see you
 
 But I hope so, but I hope so
  
 
 Parting now at our own Grey Havens
 
 The words you left the debris
 
 So be still, knowing that He'll see you across the Sea
  
 
 Don't know if I'll see you
 
 When it's my turn to come home
 
 Don't know if I'll see you
 
 But I hope so, but I hope so
  
 
 To be woken from the long sleep
 
 Of this world's night
  
 
 Don't know if I'll see you
 
 When it's my turn to come home
 
 Don't know if I'll see you
 
 But I hope so, but I hope so
