The Leaving Song歌词

[00:16.70]Hold out your hand, love
[00:20.59]We'll figure this out.
[00:23.41]You don't need to leave
[00:25.95]And never look back.
[00:31.60]Take your own time, love
[00:35.89]But give it a chance.
[00:38.50]There's life in these fields
[00:40.50]Like there's rhythm in dance.
[00:46.98]Stay by my side, love
[00:50.94]And give it a doubt.
[00:53.50]Your brother has gone
[00:55.50]And my time's running out.
[01:02.00]The dew's on the grass
[01:07.00]We finish the glass
[01:12.68]The dawn's on it's way, love
[01:17.65]My son leaves today, yo.
[01:29.40]They whisper your name, Son
[01:33.43]Like they've put you to rest
[01:36.54]We've kissed you and blest you,
[01:39.00]We've all done our best.
[01:45.03]Once I could swear, love
[01:49.00]I heard the wind sing
[01:51.67]It warned of this day
[01:53.93]And the cold it would bring.
[02:00.09]These northern lights shine, love
[02:03.96]Reflect on the Foyle
[02:06.60]They'll lead your way
[02:08.30]Back to your own native soil.
[02:15.22]The dew's on the grass
[02:20.30]We finish the glass
[02:25.87]The dawn's on it's way, love
[02:30.84]My son leaves today, yo
[02:36.20]My son leaves today, Lord
[02:41.50]God help me I pray, Lord
[02:47.00]God help me I pray, yo.
[02:59.00]Slip out the door, love
[03:03.51]But don't say goodbye.
[03:06.35]Just take one last look
[03:08.60]At this northwestern sky.
