I whimper when I see a meadow To think of all that I could be Oh, I'll grab my skirts And I'll run with the wind I am friends with femininity I run my hands through blazing fire My freckles splattered on pearly skin I am swimming naked in pools of starlight How I miss the days of my soulful kin
I watch the days pass And my heart aches on To think of all I'm missing And the things I haven't done I'll hold on until my lungs give out And I can breathe again In the sweet, sweet air of ireland
I hear the call from fields of heather My name is whispered on the wind And it promises that we will be together Oh, the cliffs of moher are my oldest friends I feel the faerie drums and fiddles Light a match within my soul Oh, I see the magic around me in ripples As it lights the path that will guide me home
I watch the days pass And my heart aches on To think of all I'm missing And the things I haven't done I'll hold on until my lungs give out And I can breathe again In the sweet, sweet air of ireland
I feel my ancestors around me Pull me close and hold me tight And it makes me feel just a little less lonely When I walk the glen in my dreams at night
