Here I'll Stay

There's a far land, I'm told

Where I'll find a field of gold

But here I'll stay with you

And they say there's an isle deep with clover

Where your heart wears a smile all day through

But I know well they're wrong

And I know where I belong

And here I'll stay with you

For that land is a sandy illusion

It's the theme of a dream gone astray

And the world others woo

I can find loving you

And so here I'll stay

If I've no will to go from home

Or have no urge the seas to roam

Or turn my back on a distant star

And never burn to wander far

It's not because of fear

It's because my goal is clear

Yes, here I'll stay with you

For that land is a sandy illusion

It's the theme of a dream gone astray

And the world others woo

I can find loving you

And so here I'll stay

And so here I'll stay
