歌词
[Intro] [Verse] My wool is damp with Atlantic spray The mist has turned the green to gray I’m filling pockets with the white Of broken shells in fading light Grandad’s boots are on the stone The brightest tower I’ve ever known He hums a tune of sailor’s lore Along the wild and rocky shore [Pre-Chorus] I see the gulls begin to wheel Above the pier of rusted steel The hammered dulcimer of rain Plays a soft and sweet refrain [Chorus] Oh, let the sea-fire dance and spin Where the silver salt meets skin Hear the shanty in the breeze Moving through the ancient trees Grandad turns the heavy wheel Making all the magic real We are safe within the glow Everywhere the salt winds blow [Post-Chorus] In the glow Where the salt winds blow In the glow [Verse] The low D whistle calls the fleet Back to where the waters meet I see the trawlers in the bay Ending one more weary day He tells me how the giants sleep Inside the silence of the deep While bioluminescent sparks Light the water in the dark [Pre-Chorus] The uilleann pipes begin to drone Like a secret softly known I find a fragment of a pearl For a lucky Irish girl [Chorus] Oh, let the sea-fire dance and spin Where the silver salt meets skin Hear the shanty in the breeze Moving through the ancient trees Grandad turns the heavy wheel Making all the magic real We are safe within the glow Everywhere the salt winds blow [Bridge] The lantern swings its golden eye Across the black and heavy sky I hold the shell against my ear To keep the ocean very near Octave mandolins will ring While the ghosts of sailors sing [Breakdown] The low whistle sighs Underneath the purple skies The bodhrán beats like a heart Before the morning starts [Chorus] Oh, let the sea-fire dance and spin Where the silver salt meets skin Hear the shanty in the breeze Moving through the ancient trees Grandad turns the heavy wheel Making all the magic real We are safe within the glow Everywhere the salt winds blow [Post-Chorus] In the glow Where the salt winds blow In the glow Safe in the glow [Outro]
