I have carried all my hopes and dreams
|
To this new land with my own two hands
|
I have followed the sun away from Ireland,
|
Now like the red man, here I stand.
|
|
You hear whispers of the homeland call,
|
Love is less kind than the twilight.
|
And the passion for me once in your green eyes,
|
Like the sunlight fades from sight.
|
|
Twilight eyes, I can taste the salty tears of goodbye.
|
I can feel the cold north sea,
|
You'll be sailing with the tide
|
To the island in your emerald twilight eyes.
