Every Web site I've searched says this is an "instumental" and thus has no lyrics. Well, I have the CD (Macalla) and there are lyrics, I just can't make out a couple of words. Actually it's just one word, in the first line

"well it's the same old story, when someone ????? you"

Can anyone help me with a full set of lyrics or at least a de-coding of that one word? Many thanks.

you're right it definately has words but I can't find them on the web...... the Clannad lyrics site has it listed as an instrumental

the words aren't on the Macalla sleeve... but they are on the insert for the "collection" LP....

the line you are looking for is

it's the same old story,
when someone just tells you
the harder they come yes!
the harder they fall

if you want the rest.. let me know

OK... here you go, it is a nice song

Closer to your heart
C. O'Braona/in

It's the same old story
When someone just tells you
The harder they come yes!
The harder they fall
Taking it easy
no matter what people say
And time will heal all
Your troubles away

Chorus

I've got a notion
I might as well get
Closer to your heart
It's out in the open
I might as well get
Closer to your heart

Tossing and turning and
Burning dreams across the night
Forever searching
Silently waiting for
Such a long time
But I will know tomorrow
If you will be mine

So it's the same old story
When someone just tells you
The harder they come yes!
The harder they fall
By taking it easy
no matter what people say
And time will heal all
Your troubles away

slainte

Thanks SO much Alison. It's such a great falling in love song.

I'll try contacting the Clannad web site and send them the correction.
