My Wandering Love - The Cheeky Celt
Where the gray sea breathes on the silent shore
And the dusk falls soft on the land
I wander the road we walked before
With your ghost in my empty hand
The river runs dark through the valley below
Past the fields where the wild thyme grows
And the wind carries words from long ago
Only the lonely one knows
Oh the night holds tight what the day once knew
And the stars burn cold above
Every breeze through the hills brings me back to you
My sorrow, my wandering love
The chapel bell fades in the drifting air
And the lanterns tremble low
But the road we shared leads me nowhere
Since the day you chose to go
So I'll sit by the stones where the old paths meet
Where the heather bends in the rain
For the earth remembers your wandering feet
Though you'll never return again
Oh the night holds tight what the day once knew
And the stars burn cold above
Every breeze through the hills brings me back to you
My sorrow, my wandering love
