Thart orainn, reált geal san oíche Tá'n fharraige chiúin agus suaimhneas sa ghaoth An fharraige chiúin ina codladh sa ghaoth Thíos sa ghleann an ghleann an cheo Riocht na gréine i gCaisleán óir Tá'n fharraige chiúin agus suaimhneas sa ghaoth An fharraige chiúin ina codladh sa ghaoth Thart orainn, reált geal san oíche Tá'n fharraige chiúin agus suaimhneas sa ghaoth An fharraige chiúin ina codladh sa ghaoth Driocht a mheall na daoine roinn Soilse geala i gCaisleán óir Tá'n fharraige chiúin agus suaimhneas sa ghaoth An fharraige chiúin ina codladh sa ghaoth Thart orainn, reált geal san oíche Tá'n fharraige chiúin agus suaimhneas sa ghaoth An fharraige chiúin ina codladh sa ghaoth |

The Wild Cry
|
|
Still in time and time to say I don't believe my eyes Is this the place I love to hate? Can I explain the altered state Of the waiting room, waiting room? And the wild cry out It cries out loud in me Stayed out, script at your command A silouhette against sky I see the changing of the faces, I see Betrayed us, one gets free Of the waiting room, waiting room And the wild cry out It cries out loud in me Set my sights on the day When I'll have you here by my side And for me to share a thousand dreams with you So far removed the days In the waiting room, waiting room And the wild cry out It cries out loud in me |

Closer to Your Heart
|
|
It's the same old story when someone __ you The harder they come is the harder they fall Taking it easy no matter what people say And time will heal all your troubles away I've got a notion I might as well get closer to your heart It's out in the open I might as well get closer to your heart Tossing and turning, burning dreams across the night Forever searching Silently waiting for such a long time But will I know tomorrow that he will be mine? I've got a notion I might as well get closer to your heart It's out in the open I might as well get closer to your heart So it's the same old story when someone __ you That the harder they come is the harder they fall Like taking it easy no matter what people say And time will heal all your troubles away I've got a notion I might as well get closer to your heart It's out in the open I might as well get closer to your heart |

In a Lifetime
|
|
Hard to tell Or recognise a sign To see me through A warning sign First the thunder Satisfied, if the past will not lie Then the storm Torn asunder The future you and I got blown away In the storm And as the rain it falls Begin again, as the storm breaks through Heavy in my heart Believe the light in you So the light shines in you Without colour, faded and worn Torn asunder in the storm Unless the sound has faded from your soul Unless it disappears First the thunder Selfish storm Then the storm Hold on the inside Torn asunder One life In the storm In a lifetime In a lifetime |

Almost Seems (Too Late to Turn)
|
|
Thought I care a lot You don't believe it's true, do you? So the answer's not Give in before you start to try Almost seems to late to turn What to do if I'm to learn Almost seems to late to turn To you I saw the sad decline A rift become a storm Stayed so cold last night This lonely heart inside me says Almost seems to late to turn What to do if I'm to learn Almost seems to late to turn To you Now the anger's gone It leaves behind the pain again Where did we go wrong? Let go, my shadow, pass me by Almost seems to late to turn What to do if I'm to learn Almost seems to late to turn To you |

Indoor
|
|
There's a rumor spreading all around We're on the way To a change of setting, homeward bound Autumn day 'Cause indoor we will light the fire Light the fires of hope Lost between the mountain and the sun Caught the high emotion by the setting sun So let's leave early, don't be late Don't delay Though we expect you here at eight Come what may 'Cause indoor we will light the fire Light the fires of hope Lost between the mountain and the sun Caught the high emotion by the setting sun Lost between the mountain and the sun Caught the high emotion by the setting sun With song and dance we greet the dawn Another day The parting mass will soon be gone We're on our way 'Cause indoor we will light the fire Light the fires of hope Lost between the mountain and the sun Caught the high emotion by the setting sun Lost between the mountain and the sun Caught the high emotion by the setting sun |

Blackstairs
|
|
Colder eyes, they look through me Stare those eyes at me You must be one of those girls Who live on the blackstairs Yes, you must be one of those girls Who live on the blackstairs There's no disguise upon your face You're not like anyone I know They give so freely and they come when I come out But you're the one, the one I want to understand You must be one of those girls Who live on the blackstairs Yes, you must be one of those girls Who live on the blackstairs You're not scared, no, you don't answer You just stand there, face the stairs going home If I could choose my own way down I'd take the road to the blackstairs You must be one of those girls Who live on the blackstairs Sadness raging in the broken man Stays until the day ends When he is free to think of better days again Looks the scales of love and time are all the same You must be one of those girls Who live on the blackstairs And I long to up there And live on the blackstairs Yes, you must be one of those girls Who live on the blackstairs |

Journey's End
|
|
Blue waves are rolling Visions in my mind Of a strange voice calling Journey's at an end, journey's at an end Journey's at an end, journey's at an end Hear the anchor sinking Voices ringing clear Farewell from my kindred And friends I love so dear, and friends I love so dear Journey's at an end, journey's at an end Lost streams are fading They sweep across the vale And with oceans of meadows To bring me back again, to bring me back again Journey's at an end, journey's at an end Long have I traveled In storm, in the sun, in the rain And it's homeward singing Journey's at an end, journey's at an end Journey's at an end, journey's at an end Journey's at an end, journey's at an end |

Northern Skyline
|
|
Sit awhile staring at the ocean Riding high the boats flying motion Just a smile, tears and emotion Storm rise on the northern skyline Shadows are haunting me drifting down to the sea Remember when we used sing the old songs Of friends that part to sail to a new land Without a smile, so long a journey Storm rise on the northern skyline Shadows are haunting me drifting down to the sea Rest awhile staring at the mountain Reaching high, the valley's far below us See for miles __ the clear horizon Storm rise on the northern skyline Shadows are haunting me drifting down to the sea |
