I once told her
Where she could find her dream.
And I still adore her,
No matter how it seems.
I saw the stars fall,
Crash without a sound.
Stars go crashing
Faster than the Hound.
I saw him sleeping
Alone beneath the sky.
I caught him weeping,
And I alone knew why.
I saw the ravens,
Black without a sound.
Ravens swirling
Faster than the Hound.
I travel Ireland in a day.
You just nod your head, I'm on my way.
I've got silver wings upon my feet.
I seldom touch the ground.
The only thing I'm not
Is faster than the Hound.
Now I watch her leaving
With the light of people's dreams,
Ignorant of rainbows
In the trees where we have been.
But now there are ravens
Black without a sound,
Ravens growing closer,
Faster than the Hound.
