Thart orainn
Reált geal san oíche
Tá'n fharraige chiúin
Agus suaimhneas sa ghaoth
An fharraige chiúin
Ina codladh sa ghaoth
Thíos sa ghleann an ghleann an cheo
Riocht na gréine i Caisleán Óir
Tá'n fharraige chiúin agus suaimhneas sa ghaoth
An fharraige chiúin ina codladh sa ghaoth
Driocht a mheall na daoine roinn
Soilse geala i Caisleán Óir
Tá'n fharraige chiúin agus suaimhneas sa ghaoth
An fharraige chiúin ina codladh sa ghaoth
Still in time and time to say,
I don't believe my eyes.
Is this the place I love to hate?
Can I explain the altered state
Of the Waiting Room?
Waiting Room.
And the Wild Cry out,
Their cries are found in me
And the Wild Cry out,
Their cries are found in me
Stayed up stripped at your command
A silhouette against sky.
I see the changing of the faces I've seen,
Betrayed as one gets free
Of the Waiting Moon.
Waiting Moon.
Chorus
Instrumental
Chorus
Set my sights on the day,
When I’ll have you here by my side.
And for me to share a thousand dreams with you,
So far removed the days
In the Waiting Moon.
Waiting Moon.
Chorus
It's the same old story
When someone astounds you
The harder they come
Yes the harder they fall
Takin' it easy
No matter what people say
And time will heal all your troubles away
(chorus)
I've got a notion
I might as well be closer to your heart
It's out in the open
I might as well be closer to your heart
Tossing and turning
And burning dreams across the night
(forever searching)
Silently waiting for such a long time
But will I know tomorrow
If you will be mine?
(repeat chorus)
So it's the same old story
When someone astounds you
That the harder they come
Yes the harder they fall
Like takin' it easy
No matter what people say
And time will heal all your troubles away
(repeat chorus)
(repeat chorus)
hard to tell
or recognise a sign
to see me through
a warning sign
first the thunder
satisfied, if the past it will not lie
then the storm
torn assunder
the future you and I get blown away
in the storm
in a lifetime
and as the rain it falls
begin again, as the storm breaks through
heavy in my heart
believe the light in you
so the light shines in you
without color, faded and worn
torn asunder in the storm
unless the sound has faded from your soul
unless it disappears
first the thunder
selfish storm
then the storm
hold on the inside
torn asunder
one life
in the storm
in a lifetime
in a lifetime
Almost Seems (Too Late To Turn)
Oh. I care a lot.
You don’t believe it’s true, do you?
So. The answer’s not given before you start,
And try.
Almost seems to late to turn,
What to do if I’m to learn?
Almost seems to late to turn,
To you.
I saw the sad decline,
Of it become a storm.
Stayed so cold last night,
This lonely heart inside me says:
Almost seems to late to turn,
What to do if I’m to learn?
Almost seems to late to turn,
To you.
(Breakdown)
Almost seems to late to turn,
What to do if I’m to learn?
Almost seems to late to turn,
To you.
Now, the anger’s gone,
It leaves behind a pain, again.
Where did we go wrong?
Let go my shadow, pass me back.
Almost seems to late to turn,
What to do if I’m to learn?
Almost seems to late to turn,
To you.
(Instrumental to End)
There's a rumor spreading all around
We're on the way
To a change of setting, homeward bound
Autumn day
Chorus:
'Cause indoor we will light the fire
Light the fires of hope
Lost between the mountain and the sun
Caught the high emotion by the setting sun
So let's leave early, don't be late
Don't delay
Though we expect you here at eight
Come what may
(Chorus)
Lost between the mountain and the sun
Caught the high emotion by the setting sun
With song and dance we greet the dawn
Another day
The parting mass will soon be gone
We're on our way
(Chorus)
Lost between the mountain and the sun
Caught the high emotion by the setting sun

Translation:
I am a boy from Ireland and I'd coax a nice young girl,
I wouldn't ask for a dowry with her, I'm rich enough myself,
I own Cork, big as it is both sides of the glen and Tyrone,
And if I don't change my ways I'll be the heir for County Mayo.
Cow herding, my Leo, I did not never practice,
But playing and drinking with new young women by the mountain.
If I lost my wealth and I don't think I lost my sense,
And your kiss is no more to me than a show worn for a year.
My love and treasure, don't marry the old grey man,
But marry a young man, my Leo, even though he lives but a year,
Or you'll still be without a daughter or son above you,
Crying in the afternoon or in the morning hard.
Colder eyes, they look through me
Stare those eyes at me
You must be one of those girls
Who live on the blackstairs
Yes, you must be one of those girls
Who live on the blackstairs
There's no disguise upon your face
You're not like anyone I know
They give so freely and they come when I come out
But you're the one, the one I want to understand
You must be one of those girls
Who live on the blackstairs
Yes, you must be one of those girls
Who live on the blackstairs
You're not scared, no, you don't answer
You just stand there, face the stairs going home
If I could choose my own way down
I'd take the road to the blackstairs
You must be one of those girls
Who live on the blackstairs
Sadness raging in the broken man
Stays until the day ends
When he is free to think of better days again
Looks the scales of love and time are all the same
You must be one of those girls
Who live on the blackstairs
And I long to up there
And live on the blackstairs
Yes, you must be one of those girls
Who live on the blackstairs
Journey's End
Blue waves are rolling
Visions in my mind
Of a strange voice calling
Journey's at an end, journey's at an end
Journey's at an end, journey's at an end
Hear the anchor sinking
Voices ringing clear
Farewell from my kindred
And friends I love so dear, and friends I love so dear
Journey's at an end, journey's at an end
Lost streams are fading
They sweep across the vale
And with oceans of meadows
To bring me back again, to bring me back again
Journey's at an end, journey's at an end
Long have I traveled
In storm, in the sun, in the rain
And it's homeward singing
Journey's at an end, journey's at an end
Journey's at an end, journey's at an end
Journey's at an end, journey's at an end
Sit awhile staring at the ocean
Riding high the boats flying motion
Just a smile, tears and emotion
Storm rise on the northern skyline
Shadows are haunting me drifting down to the sea
Remember when we used sing the old songs
Of friends that part to sail to a new land
Without a smile, so long a journey
Storm rise on the northern skyline
Shadows are haunting me drifting down to the sea
Rest awhile staring at the mountain
Reaching high, the valley's far below us
See for miles __ the clear horizon
Storm rise on the northern skyline
Shadows are haunting me drifting down to the sea
