If Time Is The River
03:56

If time is the river and we are the shore I’ll stand here beside you forever and more True as the water runs down to the sea I’ll hold you in my arms and take you with me
Tell me the stories of other young men Who left what they loved to start rambling again Strayed in the ports of their own promised land After the ship had long sailed on
The valleys were green As we looked from the mountains The mist on the hills rolling by The valleys were green As we ran down the mountains Free as the wind that blows far and wide
If time is the river and we are the shore I’ll stand here beside you forever and more True as the water runs down to the sea I’ll hold you in my arms and take you with me
Tell me the stories of where you have been All those fine places I never have seen I counted the days The years in between After the ship had long sailed on
The valleys were green As we looked from the mountains The mist on the hills rolling by The valleys were green As we ran down the mountains Free as the wind that blows far and wide
If time is the river and we are the shore I’ll stand here beside you forever and more After the last star has faded and gone I’ll lie in your arms and I’ll sail on

Baby I won’t cry
Tears won’t hide my eyes
Baby I won’t cry
Dream of me tonight
Sleep and hold me tight
Dream of me tonight
Lose yourself on high
Leave the world behind
Lose yourself on high
Tower of Ivory
Love’s sweet sanctuary
Tower of Ivory
Baby I won’t cry
Tears won’t hide my eyes
Baby I won’t cry

Sunshowers

When we were children We played out in the sunshowers When we were children We danced out in the sunshowers We walked home in the rain
While we were running The wind would race behind us While we were running The leaves would chase behind us We found shelter in the storm
Front doors were bigger Windows all closed over Front doors were bigger Open wide when you called over We took one day at the time
Free city marches We watched them with our fathers Free city marches We watched them for their fathers We rose with the dawn
So we remember We tell each other stories So we remember We tell each other’s story We look to the sky
When we were children We played out in the sunshowers When we were children We danced out in the sunshowers We walked home in the rain

Beir mé ó ó ró bean ó
Beir mé ó ó ró bean í
Beir mé ó ó ró ó
Tá mé brónach is tú im dhí
Is ioma óiche fluic is fúar
Thug mé cuairt is mé liom féin
Nó go ráinig mé don áit
Mar a raibh grá geal mo croí
Beir mé ó ó ró bean ó
Beir mé ó ó ró bean í
Beir mé ó ó ró ó
Tá mé brónach is tú im dhí
I mo cláirseach ní raibh ceol
I mo mbeoraibh ní raibh brí
Nó go luaigh tú mo rún
Is fuar mé eolas ar mo dhan
Beir mé ó ó ró bean ó
Beir mé ó ó ró bean í
Beir mé ó ó ró ó
Tá mé brónach is tú im dhí

Corners In The Rain
02:48
|

|
I’ll lay flowers and roses too Summer flowers in memory of you Paint the colours Bold and bright Stand together Far and wide I’ll lay flowers and roses too
I’ll hold candles in the square Summer candles to remember you were there Count the stars Clear and bright Stand together Through the night I’ll hold candles in the square
I’ll find corners in the rain Summer corners to be with you again All the people Strong and bright Stand together Side by side I’ll find corners in the rain
I’ll lay flowers and roses too Summer flowers in memory of you Paint the colours Bold and bright Stand together Far and wide I’ll lay flowers and roses too I’ll lay flowers and roses too

Untitled War Song
03:57
|
|||
|
No one needs another great song To sing of war and evil done When the dust has blown and settled We mourn the loss and grieve as one
No one needs another rainbow The air that day was pale and gold It burned our skin and killed our children There were no marks No bullet holes
No one needs another great song Telling us what’s right and wrong In the name of God and this holy union May the mighty kneel and the peace be won
We learned to run while we were hiding Left everything when we heard the bell Like a stone dropped in the water We felt the waves when the barrels fell
No one needs another great song Telling us what’s right and wrong In the name of God and this holy union May the mighty kneel and the peace be won
For the love of God and this blessed union May the mighty kneel and the peace be won

Say it once Say it twice
I’ll take your advice
I’ll think it over
See me now See me then
I’ll count to ten
I’ll find another
The World is a safe place
To learn about heartache
No one can deny
The World is a strange place
I’m falling on my face
No time to decide
I was wrong
I was right
The Colour of Light
What goes up must come down
I’ll keep what I’ve found
For ever after
Easy come Easy go
I’ll let you know
Sooner or later
The World is a safe place
To learn about heartache
No one can deny
The World is a strange place
I’m falling on my face
No time to decide
I was wrong
I was right
The Colour of Light
