Current song lyrics
Words and music by Loreena McKennitt<br /><br />The thundering waves are calling me home to you<br />The pounding sea is calling me home to you<br /><br />On a dark new year's night<br />On the west coast of Clare<br />I heard your voice singing<br />Your eyes danced the song<br />Your hands played the tune<br />T'was a vision before me.<br /><br />We left the music behind and the dance carried on<br />As we stole away to the seashore<br />We smelt the brine, felt the wind in our hair<br />And with sadness you paused.<br /><br />Suddenly I knew that you'd have to go<br />Your world was not mine, your eyes told me so<br />Yet it was there I felt the crossroads of time<br />And I wondered why.<br /><br />As we cast our gaze on the tumbling sea<br />A vision came o'er me<br />Of thundering hooves and beating wings<br />In clouds above.<br /><br />As you turned to go I heard you call my name,<br />You were like a bird in a cage spreading its wings to fly<br />"The old ways are lost," you sang as you flew<br />And I wondered why.
