Lyrics
I once told her
I communicated to her
Where she could find her dream.
Where she could discover her aspirations.
And I still adore her,
And my admiration for her still exists,
No matter how it seems.
Regardless of how it may appear.
I saw our stars fall,
I witnessed our celestial bodies decline,
Crash without a sound.
Crashing silently.
Stars go crashing
Celestial bodies plummeting
Faster than the Hound.
More rapidly than the Hound.
I saw him sleeping
I observed him in slumber,
Alone beneath the sky.
Isolated beneath the sky.
I caught him weeping,
I perceived him shedding tears,
And I, for one, knew why.
And I, for one, comprehended the reason.
I saw the ravens,
I witnessed the ravens,
Black without a sound.
Dark and noiseless.
Ravens swirling
Ravens twirling
Faster than the Hound.
More swiftly than the Hound.
I travel Ireland in a day.
I traverse Ireland within a day.
You just nod, I'm on my way.
You simply acknowledge, I'm en route.
I've golden wings upon my feet.
I possess golden wings on my feet.
I seldom touch the ground.
I rarely touch the ground.
The only thing I'm not
The only thing I lack
Is faster than the Hound.
Is swifter than the Hound.
Now I watch her leaving
Now I observe her departure
With the light of people's dreams,
With the radiance of people's aspirations,
Ignorant of rainbows
Unaware of rainbows
In the trees where we have been.
In the trees where we once were.
Also there are ravens
Also, there are ravens
High above the ground.
Soaring high above the terrain.
Ravens growing closer
Ravens drawing near
Faster than the Hound
More rapidly than the Hound.
