Now Is the Hour (Maori Farewell Song) Lyrics

Now is the hour when we must say goodbye;
Soon you'll be sailing far across the sea.
While you're away, oh please remember me,
When you return, you'll find me waiting here.
I'll dream of you if you will dream of me,
Each hour I'll miss you, here across the sea.
It's not goodbye, it's just a sweet adieu,
Some day I'll sail across the sea to you.
While you're away, oh please remember me,
When you return, you'll find me waiting here.
