As I Roved Out Lyrics
As I roved out on a May morning
On a May morning right early
I met my love upon the way
Oh Lord but she was early.
Her boots were black, her stockings white
Her buckles shone like silver
She had a dark and rovin' eye
And her earrings touched her shoulders.
What age are you, my bo
Blue Eyed Suzie Lyrics
Come here my dear and lend an ear
I'll tell you things I'm feelin'
My feelings true and all for you
I'm tired of jigs and reelin'
The day is long don't get me wrong
This is the same old story
We'll have our time, I've had my wine
I'll take no fame nor glory
I'll take no fame nor
Borders And Time Lyrics
I think of you all the time
I'll pay for my sins
The hearthache begins
I can't free you from my mind
It seems so these days
I've tried every way
You have drifted so far from me
The winds of change
Have swept you away
Night and day
It seems like eternity
Borders and time have kept
Endless Seasons Lyrics
The winter months left us the snowfall
A black spring brought forth the rain
The summer days were long and dusty
By the fall your mind was made
And I recall we were lovers
They'll always be the good old days
The world back then was something simple
We laughed and danced in fond e
Eyes Of Margaret Lyrics
When morning comes to me
I see the eyes of Margaret
I see the eyes of Margaret
When morning comes around
When she comes near me
I see the eyes of Margaret
I see the smiles of margaret
And time rolls around
When darkness comes near her
I see a side
A pen and a letter
Have faded a

Forty Days And Nights Lyrics
Now after all this time
You're standing at my door
Just when I cleared my mind
You're coming back for more
Well it doesn't work that way
You see I'm over you
And now there's nothing left to say
Just find someone new
Forty days and forty nights
The rain came pouring down

Mull River Shuffle Lyrics
Here comes Mister MacNeil
The fine shape that he is in
There is no telling which way he'll feel
After his twister around the beinn
Raisin' the jar an raisin' hell
There's plenty of stories that
they will tell
Some are born of true detail
Some are purely fiction
Look up yonder it
North Country Lyrics
I'm heading back to the north country
With the cold wind in my eye
I'll be there by sunset
Before the first snow flies
Rustlin' leaves are on the ground
This crazy feeling hangin' round
I'll remember now and then
But don't ask when I'll be back again
Had this dream late one night

Rise Again Lyrics
When the waves roll on over the waters
And the ocean cries
We look to our sons and daughters
To explain our lives
As if a child could tell us why
That as sure as the sunrise
As sure as the sea
As sure as the wind in the trees
We rise again in the faces
of our children
We rise aga
Saved In The Arms Lyrics
They carried my old friend to
the church yard
My eyes cast slowly to the ground
The preacher read him his last words
Then they lowered his body down
Saved in the arms of my loved one
Saved on his gentle breast
Saved in the arms of my loved one
I lay my weary head down to rest

The River Lyrics
When you cross that river
The trees they will bow down
The sky will open up to you
And the lark will sing your song
When you cross that river
The path will follow you
And the winds they will caress your lips
And the fires they'll burn strong
Until then... yeah yeah

Turn That Boat Around Lyrics
Brave the lonesome wind
Sail the cold deep water
Brave the lonesome wind
Sail the cold deep water
The wind will see them home
The sea will do no harm
Turn that boat around
Wait the sons and the daughter
Long time gone, nothing's lost
forgotten
Turn that boat around
There's plenty
You Feel The Same Way Too Lyrics
Hey hey sweet darling
Let's go dancing tonight
My clock has been ticking
It tell me the timing's just right
Well I woke up this morning
With a feeling I call lonesome and blue
And there's no need in asking - 'cause I know
You feel the same way too
Hey hey sweet darling
Let's lay
Your Boat's Lost At Sea Lyrics
Love, your boat's lost at sea
I stand on the shore
In the warm summer eve
Waiting for you, waiting for you
To come home to me
Love, it's sometimes a shame
I walk through the field
In the cold autumn rain
Longing to hear, longing to hear
You call out my name
Fire on the water
And
