Lyrics:

VERSE;   “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



CHORUS ; “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!”
