"Mi Vida Loca (My Crazy Life)"

"Mi Vida Loca (My Crazy Life)"


If you're coming with me you need
Nerves of steel
'Cause I take corners on two wheels
It's a never-ending circus ride
The faint of heart need not apply

[Chorus:]
Mi vida loca over and over
Destiny turns on a dime
I go where the wind blows
You can't tame a wild rose
Welcome to my crazy life

Sweetheart before this night is through
I could fall in love with you
Come dancing on the edge with me
Let my passion set you free

[Chorus]

Here in the firelight I see your tattoo
Mi vida loco, so you're crazy too

[Chorus]

We'll go where the wind blows
And I'll be a wild rose
Welcome to my crazy life

"Moon Over Ireland"

"Moon Over Ireland"


There's a moon over Ireland, comes in from the sea
Cross the mountains and valleys where the rivers run free
From the days of my childhood, oh I've always known
There's a moon over Ireland that shines on my home

Go down the one road from Cork to Killarney
And follow it on to Tralee
And you won't be tongue tight when you kiss the Blaney
There's no fairer place you can be

I love you Galway, Limerick and Errill
Sligo and Monaghan, Mayo, Cooraclare
They say it's a long, long way to Tipperary
But that doesn't matter to me

I miss the shadow, the hills of Roscommon
The Greenfields in my memory
And I want to tell all my friends and my family
In Donegal, I'm coming home

I love you Galway, Limerick and Errill
Sligo and Monaghan, Mayo, Cooraclare
They say it's a long, long way to Tipperary
But that doesn't matter to me

There's a moon over Ireland, comes in from the sea
Cross the mountains and valleys where the rivers run free
From the days of my childhood, oh I've always known
There's a moon over Ireland that shines on my home
There's a moon over Ireland that shines on my home

"Moonlight And Roses"

"Moonlight And Roses"


Moonlight and roses
Bring wonderful memories of you;
My heart reposes
In beautiful thoughts so true.

June light discloses
Love's golden dreams sparkling anew;
Moonlight and roses
Bring wonderful memories of you.

June light discloses
Love's golden dreams sparkling anew;
Moonlight and roses
Bring wonderful memories of you.

"Moonlight In Mayo"

"Moonlight In Mayo"


It was just a year ago today I left old Erin's Isle
My heart was throbbin in the soft light of my colleen's smile
In all my dreams I seem to hearher sweet voice soft and low
I know she's waiting where we said goodbye in old Mayo

[Chorus:]
For two irish eyes are shining
And an Irish heart is pining
And when I kissed her and caressed her
In the gloaming long ago
Loving Irish arms will press me
And true Irish love caress me

And sweet Irish lips will bless me
When it's Moonlight in Mayo

Her Irish eyes like beacons shine all in the darkest night
I know the sweet love beams below will always fill the world with light
The roses of her cheeks will lend enchantment to the sea
And when shamrocks wear the dew I'll wed my sweet colleen

[Chorus]

"Morning Has Broken"

"Morning Has Broken"


Morning has broken, like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the world

Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven
Like the first dewfall, on the first grass
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness where his feet pass

Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
Born of the one light, eden saw play
Praise with elation, praise every morning
God's recreation of the new day

"My Donegal Shore"

"My Donegal Shore"


Oh I know its not right reminiscing tonight
Of days that are gone and returning no more
For the girl I dream of has another mans love
Far Far away on a Donegal Shore

But why should I care for She is happier ore there
She may have children she may be wealthy or poor
But I can't help my dreams Of what might have been
If I stayed at home on my Donegal Shore

Now its winter time there all the trees will be bare
And The rain clouds will darken my native theadore
But if that girl I could hold Every rain drop would be gold
It would fall all around us on my Donegal Shore

Now there's no one to blame But before she took his name
She told me she loved me and it hurt to the core
But I could never descend to be only her friend
So I left her there on my Donegal shore

Now its winter time there all the trees will be bare
And The rain clouds will darken my native theadore
But if that girl I could hold Every rain drop would be gold
It would fall all around us on my Donegal Shore
But if that girl I could hold Every rain drop would be gold
It would fall all around us on my Donegal Shore

"My Father's House"

"My Father's House"


Last night I dreamed that I was a child out where the pines grow wild and tall
I was trying to make it home through the forest before the darkness falls

I heard the wind rustling through the trees and ghostly voices rose from the fields
I ran with my heart pounding down that broken path
With the devil snappin' at my heels

I broke through the trees and there in he night
My father's house stood shining hard and bright the branches and brambles tore my clothes and scratched my arms
But I ran till I fell shaking in his arms

I awoke and I imagined the hard things that pulled us apart
Will never again sir tear us from each other's hearts

I got dressed and to that house I did ride from out on the road I could see its windows shining in light

I walked up the steps and stood on the porch a woman I didn't recognize came and spoke to me through a chained door
I told her my story and who I'd come for
She said "I'm sorry son but no one by that name lives here anymore"

My father's house shines hard and bright it stands like a beacon calling me in the night
Calling and calling so cold and alone
Shining cross this dark highway where our sins lie unatoned

"My Forever Friend"

"My Forever Friend"


Everybody needs a little help sometime,
No one stands alone,
Makes no difference if you're just a child like me,
Or a King upon a throne.
For there are no exceptions,
We all stand in the Light,
Everybody needs a friend,
Let me tell you of mine.

[Chorus:]
He's my forever friend,
My leave me never friend,
From darkest night, to rainbow's end,
He's my forever friend.

Even when I turn away He cares for me,
His love no one can shake,
Even as I walk away He's by my side,
With every breath I take,
And sometimes I forget Him,
My halo fails to shine,
Sometimes I'm not His friend,
But He is always mine.

[Chorus]

If you still don't know the one I'm talking off,
I think it's time you knew,
Long ago and far away upon a Cross,
My friend died for you.
So if you'd like to meet Him,
And don't know what to do,
Ask my friend into your heart,
And He'll be your friend too.

[Chorus]

"My Irish Country Home"

"My Irish Country Home"


There's a place in Ireland I Know well
Were I spend so many happy times
Were I'd sit for hours by the lake side
With my dads old fishing rod and line
And the warm summer evenings by the river
With my true loves hand clasped in mine
Were we made our promises together
That I'd be his and he'd be mine

Oh take me back to those good old days
Those times not very long ago
Let me relive again those sweet memories
Of my life in my Irish Country home

Now I'm far far away from my home lane
I'm living many miles across the sea
For I had to go abroad to get employment

'Cause at home there was no work for me
But I know I always will remember
Those golden memories of home
And all though I'm living ore the water
My heart is in my Irish Country Home

Oh take me back to those good old days
Those times not very long ago
Let me relive again those sweet memories
Of my life in my Irish Country home

[Repeat]

Yes my Life in my Iris Country home

"My Shoes Keep Walking Back To You"

"My Shoes Keep Walking Back To You"


I must say that I don't care
Hold my head up in the air
Even tell my friends I'm glad that you don't call
But when the day is through my heartaches start anew
And that's when I miss you most of all

And my arms keep reaching for you
My eyes keep searching for you
My lips keep calling for you
And my shoes keep walking back to you

No matter how much I pretend
I wish I had you back again
Oh nothing else means half as much as you
Our world just seemed to die the day you said goodbye
And I can't forget no matter what I do

And my arms keep reaching for you
My eyes keep searching for you
Oh my lips keep calling for you
And my shoes keep walking back to you
