"Fields Of Gold"

"Fields Of Gold"


You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Among the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold
So she took her love for to gaze awhile
Among the fields of barley
In his arms she fell as her hair came down
Among the fields of gold
Will you stay with me will you be my love
Among the fields of barley
And you can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold
I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We will walk in fields of gold
We'll walk in fields of gold
I never made promises lightly
And there have been some that I've broken
But I swear in the days still left
We will walk in fields of gold
We'll walk in fields of gold
Many years have passed since those summer days
Among the fields of barley
See the children run as the sun goes down
As you lie in fields of gold
You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Among the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold

"Follow On"

"Follow On"


When all is said and done,
you are the only one

The shadows on the windows,
Chains upon the door
Sleepless nights been waiting for an answer
Dreams of heaven falling,
Panic in the town
Lowly men with fingers on the future

When all is said and done,
you are the only one

Follow on,
for the open road is waiting
Like the sun,
we will welcome what tomorrow has to bring
Be it fair or stormy weather
Take my hand,
and we'll walk the road together
I won't mind,
if it turns out that we never find the end
'Cause all I ask is that you want me as a friend

Days of beauty calling
Vanish through a haze
Lost inside some spiral with no ending
Still you bring me loving,
Free me with a touch
Lead me out to greet the calm decending

When all is said and done,
You are the only one

Follow on,
for the open road is waiting
Like the sun,
we will welcome what tomorrow has to bring
Be it fair or stormy weather
Take my hand,
and we'll walk the road together
I won't mind,
if it turns out that we never find the end
'Cause all I ask is that you want me as a friend

All I ask is that you want me as a friend
And we'll walk the road together
I won't mind,
if it turns out that we never find the end
'Cause all I ask is that you want me as a friend

All I ask is that you want me as a friend

When all is said and done,
You are the only one

Follow on.

"Forever Young"
(originally by Alphaville)

"Forever Young"
(originally by Alphaville)



Let's dance in style,
Let's dance for a while,
Heaven can wait, only watching the skies,
Hoping for the best, but expecting the worst,
You gonna drop the bomb or not.

Let us stay young, let us live forever,
We don't have the power, but we never say never,
Sitting in a sand pit, life's a short trip,
Music's for the sad men.

Can you imagine when this race is won,
We turn our golden faces to the sun,
Praising our leaders, we're getting in tune,
Music played by mad men.

Forever young, forever young,
Do you really wanna live forever,
Forever and ever.

Forever young, forever young,
Do you really wanna live forever,
Forever and ever young.

Some are like water, some are like the heat,
Some are a melody, some are the beat,
Sooner or later, they'll all be gone,
Why don't they stay young.

It's so hard to get old without a cause,
I don't wanna perish like a fading horse,
Youth is like diamonds in the sun,
And diamonds are forever.

So many adventures couldn't happen today,
So many songs we forgot to play,
So many dreams swinging outta the blue,
We let them come true.

Forever young, forever young,
Do you really wanna live forever,
Forever and ever.

Forever young, forever young,
Do you really wanna live forever,
Forever and ever young.

Ooooh, oooh.

Forever young, forever young,
Do you really wanna live forever,
Forever and ever.

Forever young, forever young,
Do you really wanna live forever,
Forever and ever young.

Forever young.

"Galway Bay"

"Galway Bay"


If you ever go across the sea to Ireland,
then maybe at the closing of your day,
you can sit and watch the moon rise over Claddagh,
and see the sun go down on Galway Bay.

Just to hear again the ripple of the trout stream,
The women in the meadow making hay,
just to sit beside the turf fire in a cabin,
and watch the barefoot gosoons as they play.

ooooh......

For the breezes blowing o'er the sea's from Ireland,
Are perfumed by the heather as they blow,
And the women in the uplands digging praties,
Speak a language that the strangers do not know.

Yet the strangers came and tried to teach us their ways,
And they scorned us just for being what we are,
But they might as well go chasin after moon beams,
or light a penny candle from a star.

And if there's gonna be a life here after,
And faith somehow I'm sure there's gonna be,
I will ask my God to let me make my Heaven,
In that dear land across the Irish sea.

I will ask my God to let me make my Heaven,
In my dear land across the Irish sea.

oooooooh......

In my dear land across the Irish sea.

"Goodnight My Angel"

"Goodnight My Angel"


Goodnight my angel.
Time to close your eyes.
And save these questions for another day.
I think I know what you've been asking me.
I think you know what I've been trying to say.
I promise I would never leave you.
And you should always know, I never will be far away.
Goodnight my angel, now it's time to sleep.
And still so many things I want to say.
Remember all the songs you sang for me.
When we went sailing on a emerald bay.
And like a boat out on the ocean.
I'm rocking you to sleep.
The water is dark and deep inside this mother's heart.
You'll always be a part of me.
Goodnight my angel, now it's time to dream.
And dream how wonderfull your life will be.
Some day a child may cry and if you sing this lullaby.
Then in your heart there will always be a part of me.

"Green Grow The Rushes"

"Green Grow The Rushes"


There's not but care on every hand
In every hour that passes oh
What signifies the life of man
If it were not for the lassies oh

Green grow the rushes oh
Green grow the rushes oh
The sweetest hours that e'er I spent
Are spent among the lassies oh

The worldly race may riches chase
And riches still may fly them oh
And though at last they catch them fast
Their hearts can ne'er enjoy them oh

Green grow the rushes oh
Green grow the rushes oh
The sweetest hours that e'er I spent
Are spent among the lassies oh

The sweetest hours that e'er I spent
Are spent among the lassies oh

Green grow the rushes oh
Green grow the rushes oh
The sweetest hours that e'er I spent
Are spent among the lassies oh

Old nature swears the lovley dears
Her noblest work she classes oh
Her apprentice hand she tried on man
Then she made the lassies oh

Green grow the rushes oh
Green grow the rushes oh
The sweetest hours that e'er I spent
Are spent among the lassies oh

Green grow the rushes oh
Green grow the rushes oh
The sweetest hours that e'er I spent
Are spent among the lassies oh
Are spent among the lassies oh

"Green The Whole Year 'Round"

"Green The Whole Year 'Round"


My true love sits in a forest glade
In the springtime's golden light
The flowers, they dance in the gentle breeze
And the warm sun shines so bright
And of all the flowers in the forest
And all trees that do abound
The ones that please my heart the most
Are green the whole year 'round
Green the whole year 'round,
Green the whole year 'round,
The holly yew and the ivy tree
Are green the whole year 'round
When summer comes and the days are hot
And the birds are full of song
In the quiet shade of that leafy glade
That is where my heart belongs
For I know whenever I look for you
That is where you can be found
As you take your ease 'neath your favorite trees
That are green the whole year 'round
Green the whole year 'round,
Green the whole year 'round,
The holly yew and the ivy tree
Are green the whole year 'round
But the summer fades and the days grow short
And the autumn winds they blow
And the leaves of gold come tumbling down
To the forest far below
Memories of other days come tumbling from the past
To remind us, like the seasons do
That life goes by so fast
The winter lays her fingers cold
On dark and lonely nights
But Christmas it will soon be here
To usher in the light
And when morning breaks and the bells ring out
It is such a joyous sound
To hear them echo in the trees
That are green the whole year 'round
Green the whole year 'round,
Green the whole year 'round,
The holly yew and the ivy tree
Are green the whole year 'round
Green the whole year 'round,
Green the whole year 'round,
The holly yew and the ivy tree
Are green the whole year 'round
Green the whole year 'round,
Green the whole year 'round,
The holly yew and the ivy tree
Are green the whole year 'round

"Hark The Herald Angels Sing"


Hark! The herald angels sing:
"Glory to the newborn King
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled"
Joyful, all ye nations rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With angelic host proclaim:
"Christ is born in Bethlehem"
Hark! The herald angels sing:
"Glory to the newborn King"

Christ by highest heav'n adored
Christ the everlasting Lord
Late in time behold Him come
Offspring of a Virgin's womb
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see
Hail the incarnate Deity
Pleased as man with man to dwell
Jesus, our Emmanuel
Hark! The herald angels sing:
"Glory to the newborn King"

Hail the heav'n-born Prince of Peace
Hail the Son of Righteousness
Light and life to all He brings
Ris'n with healing in His wings
Mild He lays His glory by
Born that man no more may die
Born to raise the sons of earth
Born to give them second birth
Hark! The herald angels sing:
"Glory to the newborn King"

Joyful, all ye nations rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With angelic host proclaim:
"Christ is born in Bethlehem"

I will go east and go west
(To the places) from whence came
The moon and the sun

The moon and the sun will go
And the young man
With his reputation behind him

I will go wherever he came from -
The young man with his reputation behind him

"Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas"

"Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas"


Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Let your heart be light
From now on,
our troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on,
our troubles will be miles away.

Here we are as in olden days,
Happy golden days of yore.
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more.

Through the years
We all will be together,
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.
And have yourself A merry little Christmas now.
