The old ways[link]
by
Loreena McKennitt


The thundering waves are calling me home unto you
The pounding sea is calling me home unto you

On a dark new year's night
On the west coast of Clare
I heard your voice singing
Your eyes danced the song
Your hands played the tune
T'was a vision before me.

We left the music behind as the dance carried on
As we stole away to the seashore
And smelt the brine, felt the wind in our hair
In sadness you paused.

Suddenly I knew that you'd have to go
Your world was not mine, your eyes told me so
Yet it was there I felt the crossroads of time
And I wondered why.

As we cast our gaze on the tumbling sea
A vision came o'er me
Of thundering hooves and beating wings
In clouds above.

As you turned to go I heard you call my name,
You were like a bird in a cage spreading its wings to fly
The old ways are lost
you sang as you flew
and I wondered why

Gorgeous! And this fits the sort of spooky theme of the Celtic New Year which is, as you already know, Halloween (Samhain). I love it and the music! :love:
