Graeme J Bell - Sun sets over the Darling

As the sun sets over the darling, and now our time has come
Time for us to leave this place, but bloody hell we had fun
As the sun sets over the darling, I see her one last time
Thank you for the memories, but now I have to leave you behind

We've been coming out here for thirty years, to get away from it all
Our annual pilgrimage to Louth, where we had a ball
We drank some beer and caught some fish, and drank a little more
A week with your mates away from it all, you couldn't ask for more

As the sun sets over the darling, and now our time has come
Time for us to leave this place, but bloody hell we had fun
As the sun sets over the darling, I see her one last time
Thank you for the memories, but now I have to leave you behind

Now we're getting older, we don't move so fast
Where did the time go? Seems like only yesterday
I saw you for the first time, the darling river on the river run
And how it flowed so slow, at the end of the week always felt the sam
I didn't want to go

As the sun sets over the darling, and now our time has come
Time for us to leave this place, but bloody hell we had fun
As the sun sets over the darling, I see her one last time
Thank you for the memories, but now I have to leave you behind

Now the drives getting longer, the banks are getting steeper, getting harder to get out here
Memory's not as good, and I don't see like I could when I first started coming out here
But I know I won't forget all the good times I had, each and every year
So thank you to my friends for inviting me along, I think I owe you a beer

As the sun sets over the darling, and now our time has come
Time for us to leave this place, the bloody hell we had fun
As the sun sets over the darling, I see her one last time
Thank you for the memories, but now I have to leave you behind
As the sun sets over the darling..

As the sun sets over the darling..
As the sun sets over the darling..
As the sun sets over the darling..
