Come close to me
When rainy nights are soft with tears
And Autumn leaves are falling
I hear his voice on tumbling waves
And no one there to hold me
At evening's fall he watched me walk
His heart was mine
But my love was young and felt
The world was not cruel but kind
Where Lagan's light fell on the hour
I saw him far below me
Just as the morning calmed the storm
With no one there to hold him
My loves have come, my love's gone
And nothing left to warm me
Save for a voice on the travelling wind
And the glimpse of a face at morning |
