"Skylands"

"Skylands"


Do you hear the sound
Beating like a crowd?
Every single star seems to light up now
In these days of rain
Only you remain
Find me where horizons and stars collide

[?]

Over hills and highlands
I will take on your hands
In these steps forever
These hearts beat together
Higher, higher
We fly in skylands
Higher, higher
We fly in skylands

I can feel your heat
Burning all retreat
No more looking back, with you I'm complete
To the deep blue sea
And for this precious seat
Take us where the raindrops and sun collide

[?]

Over hills and highlands
I will take on your hands
In these steps forever
These hearts beat together
Higher, higher
We fly in skylands
Higher, higher
We fly in skylands

Higher, higher
We fly in skylands
Higher, higher
We fly in skylands

Over hills and highlands
I will take on your hands
Higher, higher
We fly in skylands

"Smile"

"Smile"


Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile
If you just smile
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use in crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile
If you just smile, smile.

"Someday"

"Someday"


Someday, when we are wiser,
When the worlds older,
When we have learned....
I pray someday we may yet,
Live to live and to let live.

Someday, life will be fairer,
Need will be rarer,
And greed will not pay.
Godspeed this bright millennium,
On its way, let it come someday.

Someday, our fight will be won and,
We'll stand in the sun in,
That bright afternoon....
'Til then, on days when the sun,
Is gone, we'll hang on,
If we wish upon the moon.

There are some days, dark and bitter,
Seems we haven't got a prayer,
But a prayer for something better,
Is the one thing we all share.

Someday, when we are wiser,
When the whole world is older,
When we have love,
And I pray, someday we may yet,
Live to live and oneday, someday...
Someday, life will be fairer,
Need will be rarer,
And greed will not pay.

Godspeed, this bright millennium,
Let it come,
If we wish upon the moon...

Oneday, someday.....soon.

"Sometimes A Prayer Will Do"
(originally by Secret Garden)

"Sometimes A Prayer Will Do"
(originally by Secret Garden)



Sometimes we stumble
Sometimes we even fall
And we can't find a friend
Can't comprehend it all

And we are lost
With nothing to hold on to
When we can't find the answer
Sometimes a prayer will do

And though we wonder
Uncertain if we will get through
To face the future
Sometimes a prayer will do

Sometimes we reach
for what's not really there
Sometimes we lose our grip
Come tumbling through midair

And we are searching
For something to hold on to
When we can't find the answer
Sometimes a prayer will do

And though we wonder
Uncertain if we will get through
To face the future
Sometimes a prayer will do

Yeah, we are stronger
Somehow we know we will get through
To face the future
Sometimes a prayer will do

Yes, we are stronger
Somehow we know we will get through
To face the future
Sometimes a prayer will do

"Somewhere"

"Somewhere"


There's a place for us
Somewhere a place for us
Peace and quiet and open air
Wait for us
Somewhere
There's a time for us
Someday a time for us
Time together with time to spare
Time to learn, time to care
Someday, somewhere
We'll find a new way of living
Will find a way of forgiving
Somewhere...
There's a place for us
A time and place for us
Hold my hand and we're half way there
Hold my hand and I'll take you there
Somehow...
Someday,
Somewhere...

"Songs From The Heart: Walking The Night / Give Me Your Hand"

"Songs From The Heart: Walking The Night / Give Me Your Hand"


Walking the night without you
Skies too high without you
Losing my way on silent roads without you
Long lone streets before me
No voice in the night to warn me
No sound of our songs
To bring you to me
Losing my way
Stars send me astray
Walking the night without you
Blind in sight without you
No song I learn
No way I turn
Brings you closer to me
Searching for songs without you
Moon so cold without you
Longing to be near
Straining to hear
A song from you
Walking the stars without you

It's calling through the dark
It's reeling in my heart
The sound of the pipes on the wind
The strains of the song
Carry me along
Sending me dancing again

From above and below
A sound soft and low
And the music's flowing through me like before
And the song that we once knew
Brings me back to you
Pipes play within me once more

Your songs are in my heart
They light the dark
So come give me your hand
Now and we'll dance tonight
In the blazing light
And the years will fade away
Fade as you play
Play through the dark
Play in my heart

I'm spinning with the sound
There a drumming in the ground
And the humming of the song beneath my skin
And the world falls away
As I hear the pipes play
Sounding the song from within
From within

Your songs are in my heart
They light the dark
So come give me your hand
Now and we'll dance tonight
In the blazing light
And the years will fade away
Fade as you play
Play through the dark
Play in my heart

There's a drumming in the ground
And the humming of a sound
That we once knew

Come sing through the night
Come fill me with your light
Play a song sounding out through the years
Play it steady and strong
Fill me with song
Sending me dancing, sending me dancing
Dance as the pipes play away in my heart

Come give me your hand tonight
Your star is bright
Your songs are in my heart!

"Spanish Lady"

"Spanish Lady"


As I came down through Dublin City
At the hour of twelve at night
Who should I see but the Spanish lady
Washing her feet by candlelight
First she washed them, then she dried them
Over a fire of amber coal
In all my life I ne'er did see
A maid so sweet about the sole

[Chorus:]
Whack for the toora loora laddy
Whack for the toora loora lay
Whack for the toora loora laddy
Whack for the toora loora lay

As I came back through Dublin City
At the hour of half past eight
Who should I spy but the Spanish lady
Brushing her hair in the broad daylight
First she tossed it, then she brushed it
On her lap was a silver comb
In all my life I ne'er did see
A maid so fair since I did roam

[Chorus]

As I went back through Dublin City
As the sun began to set
Who should I spy but the Spanish lady
Catching a moth in a golden net
When she saw me, then she fled me
Lifting her petticoat over her knee
In all my life I ne'er did see
A maid so shy as the Spanish lady

[Chorus]

"Stay Awake"

"Stay Awake"


Stay awake, don't rest your head
Don't lie down upon your bed
As the moon drifts in the skies
Stay awake, don't close your eyes
Stay awake, don't close your eyes
Though the world is fast asleep
Though your pillow's soft and deep
You're not sleepy as you seem
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Stay awake, don't nod and dream
Stay awake, don't rest your head
Don't lie down upon your bed
And while the moon drifts in the skies
Stay awake, don't close your eyes
Stay awake, don't close your eyes

Seothó seothú ló
Seothó seothú ló
Seothú ló, seothú ló
Mo ghaol, mo ghrá 'gus m'eadúil thú
Mo stoirín úr is m'fhéirín thú
Mo mhacán álainn scéimheach thú
Chan fiú mé féin bheith 'd dháil
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
Seothó seothú ló

Seothú ló, seothú ló
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia (alleluia)

Seothú ló, seothú ló, seothú ló

"Symphonie"
(originally by Silbermond)



Sag' mir was ist bloß mit uns gescheh'n
Du scheinst mir auf einmal völlig fremd zu sein
Warum geht’s mir nicht mehr gut wenn ich in deinen Armen liege
Es ist egal geworden was mit uns passiert

Wo willst du hin, ich kann dich kaum noch seh'n
Uns're Eitelkeit stellt sich uns in den Weg
Wollten wir nicht alles wagen, hab'n wir uns vielleicht verraten
Ich hab geglaubt wir könnten echt alles ertragen

Symphonie, und jetzt wird es still um uns
Denn wir steh'n hier im Regen hab'n uns nichts mehr zu geben
Und es ist besser wenn du gehst
Denn es ist Zeit sich einzugesteh'n dass es nicht geht
Es gibt nichts mehr zu reden wenn es nur regnet
Ist es besser aufzugeben

Es verdichtet sich die Stille über uns
Ich versteh' nicht mehr ein Wort aus deinem Mund
Haben wir zu viel versucht, warum konnten wir's nicht ahnen
Es wird nicht leicht sein das alles einzuseh'n

Symphonie, und jetzt wird es still um uns
Denn wir steh'n hier im Regen hab'n uns nichts mehr zu geben
Es ist besser wenn du gehst
Denn es ist Zeit sich einzugesteh'n dass es nicht geht
Es gibt nichts mehr zu reden wenn es nur regnet
Ist es besser aufzugeben

Symphonie, und jetzt wird es still um uns
Denn wir steh'n hier im Regen hab'n uns nichts mehr zu geben
Und es ist besser wenn du gehst

Symphonie.
