Long Time Traveller – The Wailin’ Jennys

These fleeting charms of earth
Farewell, your springs of joy are dry
My soul now seeks another home
A brighter world on high

I’m a long time travelling here below
I’m a long time travelling away from home
I’m a long time travelling here below
To lay this body down

Farewell kind friends whose tender care
Has long engaged my love
Your fond embrace I now exchange
For better friends above

I’m a long time travelling here below
I’m a long time travelling away from home
I’m a long time travelling here below
To lay this body down…

I’m a long time traveling here below,
I’m a long time traveling away from home.
I’m a long time traveling here below
To lay this body down,
To lay this body down,
