If We Never Meet Again

Soon we must part
Starting our lives anew
Where we may never meet again
But as we start
Know I’ll be missing you
There, if we never meet again
You’ll have your Papa to shield you from harm
Safe on your farm in the middle of Orchid Street
You know I wish only good things for you
Organdy dresses and boys with gold rings for you
Each day a treat
If we never meet again
Who would have thought, on this crowded old ship
Down in the hold where the nights never end
Who would have thought, on this terrible trip
I’d meet a sister
An angel
A friend
Now we’ll b there
Going our separat ways
There in the Golden Land
Leading our golden days
But not quite complete
If we never meet again
There she is!
The Statue of Liberty!
