I will live my life as a lobster man's wife
On an island in the blue bay
He will take care of me he will smell like the sea
And close to my heart he'll always stay
I will bare three girls all with strawberry curls
Named Ella and Nellie and Fay
While I'm combing their hair I will catch his warm stare
On our island in the blue bay
Far away far away I wanna go far away
To a new life on a new shoreline
Where the water is blue and the people are new
To another island in another life
There's a boy next to me and he never will be
Anything but a boy at the bar
And I think he's the tops he's where everything stops
How I love to love him from afar
When he walks right past me then I finally see
On this barstool I can't stay
So I'm taking my frown to a far distant town
On an island in the blue bay
Far away far away I wanna go far away
To a new life on a new shoreline
Where the water is blue and the people are new
To another island in another life
I wanna go far away away away
I wanna go far away away away
I wanna go far
Away
Away-ay-ayey-ay
Where the water is blue and the people are new
To another life to another life
To another shoreline in another life
