What's closest to the heart comes out
Closest, next or near it What's closest to the heart comes out Listen, you'll hear it We have come the weary roads Through the weather In the hollow of the wild Will we be together? Come in from the wind and rain Come in from the thunder Come in with your aching heart I won't see you go under I'll hold you from the bitter cold Through the wonder In the hollow of the wild No more need to hunger What's closest to the heart comes out Closest, next or near it What's closest to the heart comes out You'll hear it Music in the darkest night With you beside me In the hollow of the wild Come and feel the warming fire You and me, me and you Will you come? You're welcome to 'A dtiocfa tu? |

Darling, I have come to tell you
Though it almost breaks my heart But before the morning, darling We'll be many miles apart Chorus: Don't this road look rough and rocky? Don't that sea look wide and deep? Don't my baby look the sweetest When he's in my arms asleep? Can't you hear the night birds crying Far across the deep blue sea? When of others you are thinking Won't you sometimes think of me? (Chorus) One more kiss before I leave you One more kiss before we part You have caused me lots of trouble Darling, you have broke my heart (Chorus) |

'Twas the wild flowers I preferred
Who owed nothing to nobody But blossomed in the ditches And made their own way in the world 'Twas the wild flowers I admired Who never done nothing to you But driven from the garden Sang their own songs in the spring You can have your lily, you can have your rose That were taken and broken and bred by men They were grafted and lamed Twisted and tamed But the wild flowers I enjoyed They had nothing to do with you They flowered by the roadside And wore their own colors in the sun That were there before you, will be there after you That will out, that will out like your own true nature You can try, you can try That you will never defeat The wild flowers I enjoyed They had nothing to do with you Banished from the garden They made their own way in the world They sang their own songs in the spring And wore their own colors in the sun |

The back of the winter is broken
And light lingers long by the door The seeds of the summer have spoken In gowans that bloom on the shore By night and day we'll sport and we'll play And delight as the dawn dances over the bay Sleep blows the breath of the morning away And we follow the heron home In darkness we cradled our sorrow And stoked all our fires with fear These bones that lie empty and hollow Are ready for gladness to cheer By night and day we'll sport and we'll play And delight as the dawn dances over the bay Sleep blows the breath of the morning away And we follow the heron home Long may you sing of the salmon And the snow-scented sound of your home While the north wind delivers its sermon Of ice and salt water and stone By night and day we'll sport and we'll play And delight as the dawn dances over the bay Sleep blows the breath of the morning away And we follow By night and day we'll sport and we'll play And delight as the dawn dances over the bay Sleep blows the breath of the morning away And we follow the heron home |

My work is done for this long day, the sun sets on the strand
My mind is as unsettled as my feet upon the sand This is the ground I cannot hold, it rolls away from me My heart is on the farthest wave, a boat upon the sea Moving out to you, moving out to you My heart is on the farthest wave moving out to you Sometimes I hear you say my name, you steal into my sleep And stir the sea inside of me, the longing running deep I have enough to see me through, do you have all you need? My heart is on the farthest wave, I cannot stop the sea Moving out to you, moving out to you My heart is on the farthest wave moving out to you I have enough to see me through, do you have all you need? My heart is on the farthest wave, I cannot stop the sea Moving out to you, moving out to you My heart is on the farthest wave moving out to you |

I am old, very old, but I don't need a wattle
I am old, yes, I'm old, but I'm not a dry nettle All I need is man who is high in his mettle Glory oh glory, glory, when the evening declines Glory oh glory, glory, as the evening declines And before the black hunger, I'd husbands in plenty Maybe your granddad was one of the many Or was he that red-coat who swigged more than any? Glory oh glory, glory, when the evening declines Glory oh glory, glory, as the evening declines You can have all your gold, the high king of all metals With soft talk and kisses we'll never want better And the west of a ditch is the best of all settles Glory oh glory, glory, when the evening declines Glory oh glory, glory, as the evening declines I am old, very old, but I don't need a wattle I am old, yes, I'm old, but I'm not a dry nettle So you clout the pot, and I'll clout the kettle Glory oh glory, glory, when the evening declines Glory oh glory, glory, as the evening declines |

It matters nothing what they did to you
The storm is over, the wreckage through Leave them in your wake, no more for you to take Be like the sea If it hurts your heart, cast it up on the shore Let it go forever, ceart go leor Wash away the sorrow, the tears of no tomorrow Be like the sea The sea, the sea, dive with me We'll lose these rags we're wearing and be Like the sea, the sea, wild and free We'll swim out past the longing so deep Down below these waves in the deepest depth There are echoes sounding true as your breath The still, small voice in you, the endless open blue Be like the sea Go on forever, shine out in the sun The full a ta se everyone Dance yourself around, give up the small ground Be like the sea The sea, the sea, dive with me We'll lose these rags we're wearing and be Like the sea, the sea, wild and free We'll swim out past the longing so deep Away out past the longing so deep |

'Mid pleasures and palaces though we may roam
Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home A charm from the skies seems to hallow us there Which seek through the world, is ne'er met with elsewhere Home, sweet home, there's no place like home Home, sweet home, there's no place like home I gaze on the moon as I tread the drear wild And feel that my mother now thinks of her child As she looks on that moon from our own cottage door Through the woodbine whose fragrance will cheer me no more Home, sweet home, there's no place like home Home, sweet home, there's no place like home An exile from home, splendor dazzles in vain Oh give me my lowly-thatched cottage again The birds singing gaily that came at my call Give me them and that peace of mind, dearer than all Home, sweet home, there's no place like home Home, sweet home, there's no place like home Home, sweet home, there's no place like home Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home |
