SKY LANTERN

Your love goes on and on Sky lantern Solo flight On a wing and a prayer Away across the mighty Shannon Paper and flame Drifting out over Galway Bay Above forgotten dreams Long caught in fishermen's nets Across the Atlantic You fly on and on Across the Atlantic Your love carries on and on Sky lantern Free of tethers and full of light Flying high Away away into exile In moving hearts And emigrant eyes All hope is lifted On a rising tide Across the Atlantic You fly on and on Across the Atlantic Your love carries on and on And all the days Come crashing down like ocean waves Still I feel you close Even as you soar away As you soar away Across the Atlantic You fly on and on Across the Atlantic Your love carries on and on Across the Atlantic You fly on and on Across the Atlantic Your love carries on and on Across the rubicon Your love carries on and on Lord bless these kites Lord bless these kites
