DAVEY LONG - SKY LANTERN

Your love goes on and on

Sky lantern
Solo flight
On a wing and a prayer
Away across the mighty Shannon
Paper and flame
Drifting out over Galway Bay
Above forgotten dreams
Long caught in fishermen's nets

Across the Atlantic
You fly on and on
Across the Atlantic
Your love carries on and on

Sky lantern
Free of tethers and full of light
Flying high
Away away into exile
In moving hearts
And emigrant eyes
All hope is lifted
On a rising tide

Across the Atlantic
You fly on and on
Across the Atlantic
Your love carries on and on

And all the days
Come crashing down like ocean waves
Still I feel you close
Even as you soar away
As you soar away

Across the Atlantic
You fly on and on
Across the Atlantic
Your love carries on and on
Across the Atlantic
You fly on and on
Across the Atlantic
Your love carries on and on
Across the rubicon
Your love carries on and on

Lord bless these kites
Lord bless these kites
