Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] The mist is low on Galway Bay The gorse is blooming gold today I found a hollow in the wall Where shadows stretch and spirits call A silver latch, a glint of light Hidden from the reach of night I feel the pulse of long ago In the water’s steady flow [Pre-Chorus] The wind is singing through the grass Watching all the seasons pass I hold the metal in my hand And understand this lonely land [Chorus] Oh, the salt is on my skin Where the ancient world begins A hundred years are just a breath A dance that triumphs over death I feel you walking by my side Turning with the morning tide We are bound by silver thread In the golden light ahead [Post-Chorus] Silver thread, silver light Everything is shining bright Silver thread, silver light Walking through the morning white [Verse] A frayed blue ribbon, thin and old A story waiting to be told I hear your laughter in the spray Chasing all the clouds away You’re skipping pebbles on the deep Waking secrets from their sleep Your hand is ghostly, soft and warm Safe within the morning storm [Pre-Chorus] The gulls are crying in the sky As the heavy clouds go by I see the sparkle in your eye Underneath the morning sky [Chorus] Oh, the salt is on my skin Where the ancient world begins A hundred years are just a breath A dance that triumphs over death I feel you walking by my side Turning with the morning tide We are bound by silver thread In the golden light ahead [Bridge] (Ooh, the wooden flute is calling) (Aah, the hammered dulcimer falling) Da-ra-da, da-ra-da, light Da-ra-da, da-ra-da, bright The pipes are humming in the air I feel your spirit everywhere No more silence, no more cold In this locket made of gold [Verse] The sun is burning through the haze To bless the ending of our maze I’ll keep your locket close to me A quiet promise from the sea The seagull cries are tangled high In the corners of the sky We walk together, heart to heart Time can never pull apart [Chorus] Oh, the salt is on my skin Where the ancient world begins A hundred years are just a breath A dance that triumphs over death I feel you walking by my side Turning with the morning tide We are bound by silver thread In the golden light ahead [Outro]
