I met my love in passage west

The sun was sinking down to rest

The river to the stars confessed

Twas the dark haired woman I loved best

We wandered down by the chapel square

And there was magic in the air

And mother nature gently pressed

The burning river to her breast

I offered her a golden ring

My hand my heart and everything

I offered her a sweet love nest

By the flowing banks of passage west

Oh love will you go will you go will you go

Or love will you stay will you stay will you stay

Oh love will you go will you go will you go

Or love will you stay will you stay will you stay

We watched the ferry come and go

We watched the river ebb and flow

The tide breathe in the tide breathe out

We watched the passage flowers grow

The ghostly forms of the hungry years

In sad procession did appear

With hope and sorrow made their way

For their passage west to amerikay

Oh love will you go will you go will you go

Or love will you stay will you stay will you stay

Oh love will you go will you go will you go

Or love will you stay will you stay will you stay

The famine queen stood tall and proud

On either bank the people bowed

From passage west came a fenian yell

Rule Brittania rule in hell

The grass grows green on the other side

And mighty ships sail out the tide

To far flung harbours across the sea

Far away from Passage my love and me

Oh love will you go will you go will you go

Or love will you stay will you stay will you stay

Oh love will you go will you go will you go

Or love will you stay will you stay will you stay

I met my love in Passage west

The sun was sinking down to rest

The river to the stars confessed

Twas the dark haired woman I loved best
