lyrics

__________________________________________


Saint Kevin's sleeping in his old bed,
Sally lost herself in a gap near the head
Take my hand and we will fly away
Down the river to Clara Vale


I'll see you down in the Feather Beds
The winding roads of heather heads
There's music in the whin's and trees
A fairy dancing on the melody
What you'll find you'll never know
Wandering


Take the giant steps
Up to the eagles nest
Tread softly where the banfhathach rests
If you should find yourself in emptiness
The Manannan's swell will surely ease your way


I'll see you down in the Feather Beds
The winding roads of heather heads
There's music in the whin's and trees
A fairy dancing to the melody
What you'll find you'll never know
Wandering


And that old devil is watching o'er his glen
Better creep inside it only when
He's haunting someone else's dream
Through the Hungry grass, the tall Ash trees
They'll hide our shadows keep us free


I'll see you down in the Feather Beds
The winding roads of heather heads
There's music in the whin's and trees
A fairy dancing on the melody
What you'll find you'll never know
Wandering

In Wicklow
