Chris Coville Lyr Req: Emigrant(s) by the Fureys (18) RE: Lyr Req: Emigrant(s) by the Fureys 07 Jul 13


This is what my fellow singer and I heard from the LIVE version with your help. What we hear different is written in capitals. Thanks a million!

When sweet AIRS they do arise
And you hear the sounds of butterflies
Or the spirit of some crimson rose
Or the echo of that sea sand shore
It is the hour I leave this place
Made fair by you but you alone
So here's Godspeed one last embrace
Way down below them stepping stones

And in THE stream long leaf flowers weep
Way down beyond ONE TRODDEN strand
Like between THE rainbow and the sun
My boat sets seaward from the land
And love may come and love may go
Just like that bird from tree to tree
But when she sleeps OUR heart I know
Will wander with BEYOND the sea

"A stor mo chroi" is a very fine song as well, Jim ;)
