Morning Light

I am here by your side
Through the cold of the night
The thoughts in my mind
Fill the quiet in your eyes
It’s all over now
I remember the day
When we played by the bay
The sunlight kissed
Through the clearing mist
On to the ripening corn
It’s all over now
But I’m with you
When will we meet?
When will we meet?
When will we meet again?
Now your face has grown pale
And your life now so frail
But all through the years
You guarded my fears
It’s all over now
With your strong Gaelic smile
With your songs and your style
On the path to the shore
To the salt winter store
By the upturned boats
It’s all over now
But I’m with you
When will we meet?
When will we meet?
When will we meet again?
I see the light of the dawn
From the moorland to the Storr
Though the window is closed
The light of the morning’s all yours
— back to run through the corn
It’s all over now
But I’m with you
When will we meet?
When will we meet?
When will we meet again?
