The Parting Glass

Of all the money that e'er I spent I spent it in good company And all the harm that e'er I've done Alas! It was to none but me And all I've done for want of wit To memory now I can't recall So fill to me the parting glass Good night and joy be with you all Oh, if I had money enough to spend And leisure time to sit a while There is a fair man in this town That sorely has my heart beguiled His rosy cheeks and lovely lips Alone he has my heart in thrall So fill to me the parting glass Good night and joy be with you all Of all the comrades that e'er I had They're sorry for my going away And of all the sweethearts that e'er I had They'd wish me one more day to stay But since it falls unto my lot That I should rise and you should not I gently rise and softly call Good night and joy be with you all --- The Parting Glass - Loreena McKennitt
