Night owns my white bones but
What's left is still saying Strange prayers in high places Wild airs with wilder graces Birds fly with no motion What draws me draws the ocean Chorus Down on my knees again, Still believing In the time of reason no more Down on my knees again Still believing Peace of mind is worth any chore Great dreams and laid schemes Just blown down by high winds And strong signs from old forces Wild dogs run trackless courses Night changes sweet mountain Vain hopes need cold fountains Chorus Night owns my white bones but What's left is still saying Chorus... |

This child he means the world to me, There is no more enchanted
A child can take this place of ruin, And magically enhance it. I see him in a golden room, With the book of life before him Strange instruments upon his charts, And the crystal glow inside him. He's your Wonder Child, And my dreams come true You've searched all your life, I see him now flying over the universe. This child will build a violin, One will follow the traveller's love Another will the bow apply, To reach the one above. I see her in a golden room, With the moon and stars above her Her simple smile is Heaven's gate, With the Queen of all beside her. She's your Wonder Child, And my dreams come true You've searched all your life, I see her now flying over the universe. Your Wonder Child, And my dreams come true You've searched all your life, I see them now flying over the universe. |

Chorus
In darkness we do what we can In daylight we're oblivion Our hearts so raw and clear Are turning away, turning away from here On water we have walked like the fearless child What was fastened we've unlocked revealing wondrous wild And in search for confirmation We have jumped into the fire And scrambled with our burning feet through uncontrolled desire Chorus There's a well upon the hill from our ancient past Where an age is standing still holding strong and fast And there's those that try to tame it And the carve it into stone Ah but words cannot extinguish it However hard they're thrown Chorus On Racherie they have worked with their island dreams By Lough Cleggan they have nourished in the mountain streams And in searching for acceptance They have given it away Only the children of our children Know the price they had to pay Chorus |

It reads like a fairytale
and that's what it was Young man in his prime young girl from the cross The most perfect of strangers and then the night closed in and the holy ground took care of everything Now she was a fine one and he was a handsome man One look was enough and away they ran They spend many happy hours and then the night closed in and the holy ground took care of everything Oh what's the use in complaining In for a penny in for a pound I remember the loving time and nothing else really counts And I recall the promise they made With a faith I can but admire That she'd be the one he adored and he'd be her hearts desire It didn't come true in the end they went their separate ways He couldn't change what he was she wasn't ready to wait They couldn't live in the daylight they let the night close in and the holy ground took care of everything I remember the loving time and nothing else really counts |

When the morning comes
I gaze on you with desire When the morning comes my look will be perfectly plain When the morning comes my beloved one When the morning comes you'll know that we both feel the same In the afternoon misgivings will pale into nothing In the afternoon we'll know what it is to believe When it's afternoon and I covet you In the afternoon I'll give you no reason to leave Done with time and patience I moved with the crowd Lonely in my silence and being without Then all in one instant straight out of the blue Out of all its goodness The summer sent you Now its evening time and I reach for you lying beside me Now its evening time your kiss will be tender and sure Now its evening time just like every time In the evening time I love you as much as before Done with time and patience I moved with the crowd Lonely in my silence and being without Then all in one instance straight out of the blue Out of all its goodness The Summer sent you All in one sweet instant straight out of the blue Out of all its goodness The Summer sent you |

He don't know how to lie
Or undermine you He don't know how to steal How to deal or deceive So leave him alone, set him free Cause he's speaking with the angel That only he can see You say he's so helpless Well what about you You don't pull the strings Don't you know anything Just leave him alone, let him be Cause he's speaking with the angel That only he can see Would you teach him about heaven Would you show him how to love the earth Would you poison him with prejudice From the moment of his birth He in the name of love He in the blood of the lamb He that never lays blame He don't even know his name Just leave him alone, let him be Cause he's speaking with the angel Speaking with the angel The very one that spoke to you and me Oh do you remember? |

He said darling I'm in love with you mind
The way you care for me it's so kind Love to see you again wish I had more time He was laughing as he brushed my cheek Why don't you call me baby maybe next week Promise now cross your heart and hope to die Chorus But I misunderstood But I misunderstood But I misunderstood I thought he was saying good luck He was saying goodbye Repeat Chorus Things I tried to put shine in his eyes Wire wheels and shimmering things Wild nights when the whole world seemed to fly He said the thing that's so unique When we're together we don't have to speak We'll always be such good friends you and I Chorus But I misunderstood But I misunderstood But I misunderstood I thought he was saying good luck He was saying goodbye Repeart Chorus |

When times are hard and friends are few
And you need someone to help you through Just call my name and I'll come running to your side Don't be afraid don't be afraid I will be there When you are lost in the night No where to run I will be there Don't be afraid don't be afraid When morning comes and nothing's changed And the world around plays the same old game Just call on me and I will ease your lonely heart Don't be afraid don't be afraid I will be there When you are lost in the night No where to turn I will be there Don't be afraid don't be afraid I will be there When every one that you believe still lets you down I will be there Don't be afraid don't be afraid Cause I will be there don't be afraid I will be there don't be afraid I will be there When morning comes and nothing's changed And the world around plays the same old game When everyone still lets you down I will be there When morning comes and friends are few You need someone you need someone to help you through I will be there don't be afraid I will be there don't be afraid I will be there When you are lost in the night No where to turn I will be there Don't be afraid Don't be afraid I will be there When everyone that you believe still lets you down I will be there Don't be afraid don't be afraid I will be there When you are lost in the night No where to turn I will be there Don't be afraid don't be afraid |

Remember when we walked on hills of heather
Singing weaving mystical rings Now in a while my precious child You wil unfurl your wings And I'll have lost what I believed Had promised everything But before you go my friend, my kind companion Listen to this song I sing Then go in peace and grow in grace and goodness Know that you have nothing to fear And dry your eyes my little one And let there be no tears Send me a dream from away beyond I promise I shall hear Oh beautifull beloved soul companion Thank you for those beautifull years And heaven hold and watch your way forever May your every dream com true Forgive all wrong, always be strong And do what you must do You stand before this open door And you must now go through My precious friend, my own my sweet companion Bless the road that carries you My precious friend, myu own my sweet companion Bless the road that carries you |

The sky collapsed around us, You didn't seem to care
I hailed you through the raindrops, You weren't even there. I juggle with the breakfast, You fret behind the sheets I want you to be steadfast, You want to be released. CHORUS: Oh my pretty darling, Where did we go astray Oh my pretty darling, I thought you'd come to stay. We're all dollied up for the circus, Oh isn't it grand We're laughing, jumping and kissing, We're beating the band. I've got no more smiles to win you, No tricks to turn your head When love cannot continue, There's not much to be said. CHORUS It's all cut and thrust at the circus, And maybe makes three You're twisting my words into serpents, I'm down on my knees. Oh my pretty darling, I thought you'd come to stay I thought you'd come to stay, I thought you'd come to stay. |

Walking all the day
Near tall towers where falcons build their nests Siver winged they fly They know the call of freedom in their breasts Saw Black Head against the sky With twisted rocks that run down to the sea Living on your western shore Saw summer sunsets, asked for more I stood by your Atlantic sea And sang a song for Ireland Talking all the day With true friends who try to make you stay Telling jokes and news Singing songs to pass the night away Watched the Galway salmon run Like silver dancing, darting in the sun Living on your western shore Saw summer sunsets, asked for more I stood by your Atlantic sea And sang a song for Ireland Drinking all the day In old pubs where fiddlers loved to play Someone touched the bow He played a reel, it seemed so grand and gay Stood on Dingle beach And cast in wild foam, we found Atlantic bass Living on your western shore Saw summer sunsets, asked for more I stood by your Atlantic sea And sang a song for Ireland Dreaming in the night I saw a land where no man had to fight Waking in your dawn I saw you crying in the morning light Lying where the falcons fly They twist and turn all in you e'er blue sky Living on your western shore Saw summer sunsets, asked for more I stood by your Atlantic sea And sang a song for Ireland |

Across the evening sky
All the birds are leaving But how can they know It's time for them to go? Before the winter fire I will still be dreaming I do not count the time For who knows where the time goes? Who knows where the time goes? Sad deserted shore your fickle friends are leaving Ah, then you know It's time for them to go But I will still be here I have no thought of leaving You know I have no thought of time For who knows where the time goes? Who knows where the time goes? And I am not alone While my love is near me I know it will be so Until it's time to go So come the storms of winter And then the birds in spring again I do not fear the time For who knows where the time goes? Who knows where the time goes? |

Ring them bells, ye heathen
From the city that dreams Ring them bells from the sanctuaries Cross the valleys and streams For they're deep and they're wide And the world's on its side And time is running backwards And so is the bride Ring the bells St.Peter Where the four winds blow Ring them bells with an iron hand For the people will know Oh it's rush hour now On the wheel and the plow And the sun is going down Upon the sacred cow Ring them bells Sweet Martha For the poor man's son Ring them bells so the world will know That God is one Oh the shephered is asleep Where the willows weep And the mountains they are filled With lost sheep Ring them bells for the blind and the deaf Ring them bells for all of us who are left Ring them bells for the chosen few Who will judge the many when the day is through Ring them bells, for the time that flies For the child that cries When the innocence dies Ring them bells St.Catherine From the top of the room Ring the bells from the fortress For the lillies that bloom For the lines they are long And the fighting is strong And they're breaking down the distance Between right and wrong |

Cast my boat out to the ocean
and set it sails to the wind Gentle breeze blowing into my heart I'm alive in this gentle world A life carefree A life carefree And in this love that you give me You have to share the joy and mystery The wonder of your smile and the power of your words That changes me That changes me Sometimes I could fly When your heart it touches mine Deep into the blue Where my soul is lost and all because of you Gave my heart to another love Crashing waves of pain came over me In my distress you came and rescued me Still the storm talked away Of life carefree Of life carefree Sometimes I could fly When your heart it touches mine Deep into the blue Where my soul is lost and all because of you When I found myself far away from you Thats when I hear your voice Reminding me, calling me, lifting me Out into the blue Out into the blue Sometimes I could fly When you heart it touches mine Deep into the blue Where my soul is lost and all because of you |

Words are flying out like endless rain into a paper cup,
They slither wildly as they slip away across the universe Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind, Possessing and caressing me. Jai Guru De Va Om Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world. Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes, That call me on and on across the universe, Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box they Tumble blindly as they make their way Across the universe Jai Guru De Va Om Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world. Sounds of laughter shades of love are ringing Through my open ears [views] inciting and inviting me Limitless undying love which shines around me like a Million suns, it calls me on and on Across the universe Jai Guru De Va Om Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world. Jai - Live Forever Guru - Teacher De Va - Heavenly One Om - The Vibration of the Universe |

If I gave my heart to you
Would you promise to be true It would break my heart in two If you left me waiting anticipating Till some other magic day I may steal your heart away Then you would take my hand And then understand me When you'd really see me In a world of different dreams Where all things aren't what they seem When you would take my hand If I gave my heart If I gave my heart If I gave my heart to you For only truth remains Cause all things are just the same The excepting part of truth If I gave my heart If I gave my heart If I gave my heart to you |

I found your letter in my mailbox today
You were just checking if I was okay And if I miss you, well you know what they say Just once in a very blue moon Just once in a very blue moon Just once in a very blue moon And I feel one coming on soon No need to ask me if we can be friends And help me right back on my feet again And if I miss you, well just now and then Just once in a very blue moon Just once in a very blue moon Just once in a very blue moon And I feel one coming on soon There's a blue moon shining When I am reminded of all we've been through Such a blue moon shining Does it ever shine down on you? You act as if it doesn't hurt you at all Like I'm the only one who's getting up from a fall Don't you remember now don't you recall Just once in a very blue moon Just once in a very blue moon Just once in a very blue moon And I feel one coming on soon Just once in a very blue moon |

I know it's the same old song I'm singing
But this time these words are just for you That's the only thing that's new I know that I've sung about a million Borrowed lines and phrases from a few This one's till as good as new Without the fanfare I love you By day I move words around like flowers I deliver by the afternoon "Cause the piper calls the tune Today I made full use of the hours I explored the smallest avenue And that feeling still came through Without the fanfare I love you Sure I've lost my way sometimes But I've had to pay Sometimes I've gone completely overboard Moved a million phrases round, tried to make them leave the ground Still the only line that's soared Bidding all the rest Adieu Sounding still as good as new Without the fanfare I love you Hello, do I still have your attention? I forgot to mention thanks again from the captain and the crew And so without the sweet perfume or roses I hope you can still believe it's true Stripped of all that much ado Without the fanfare I love you Without the fanfare I love you |
