Ye Vagabonds - Blue Is the Eye lyrics
Brían and Diarmuid Mac Gloinn
[Ye Vagabonds - Blue Is the Eye lyrics]
A crack in the sky lends a light to the dark
The wind blows the ember
A coal from the hearth
You carry it proudly through
Ditches and trees
And cross the horizon to lie down and sleep
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye watches over the sea
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye that looks after thee
Over the ocean toward a new world
The city, the island, the tear in the pearl
A boat on the water casts out a clear еye
The darkness bеneath us is teeming with life
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye watches over the sea
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye that looks after thee
Handed the fire from the hearth on the hill
The coal and the ember, they glow away still
Songs to the stranger, familiar and clear
Ring out in chorus for all you hold dear
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye watches over the sea
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye that looks after thee
A flash in the dark glimmers silver and blue
Breaches the waves for a moment or two
Moves away slowly back into the deep
Blue is the eye watches over the sea
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye watches over the sea
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye that looks after thee
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye watches over the sea
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye that looks after thee
The wind blows the ember
A coal from the hearth
You carry it proudly through
Ditches and trees
And cross the horizon to lie down and sleep
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye watches over the sea
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye that looks after thee
Over the ocean toward a new world
The city, the island, the tear in the pearl
A boat on the water casts out a clear еye
The darkness bеneath us is teeming with life
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye watches over the sea
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye that looks after thee
Handed the fire from the hearth on the hill
The coal and the ember, they glow away still
Songs to the stranger, familiar and clear
Ring out in chorus for all you hold dear
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye watches over the sea
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye that looks after thee
A flash in the dark glimmers silver and blue
Breaches the waves for a moment or two
Moves away slowly back into the deep
Blue is the eye watches over the sea
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye watches over the sea
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye that looks after thee
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye watches over the sea
Lie down and sleep, sleep well, my darling
Blue is the eye that looks after thee
