Hold out your hand, love
We'll figure this out.
You don't need to leave
And never look back.
But take your own time, love
But give it a chance.
There's life in these fields
Like there's rhythm in dance.
Stay by my side, love
And give it a doubt.
Your brother has gone
And my time's running out.
The dew's on the gra**
We finish the gla**
The dawn's on it's way now
My son leaves today [?]
They whisper your name, Son
Like they've put you to rest.
We've kissed you and blest you,
We've all done our best.
Once I could swear, love
I heard the wind sing
It warned of this day
And the cold it would bring.
These northern lights shine, love
Reflect on the Foyle
They lead your way
Back to your own [?] of [?]
The dew's on the gra**
We finish the gla**
The dawn's on it's way now
My son leaves today [?]
My son leaves today Lord
God help me I pray Lord
God help me I pray [?]
Slip out the door, love
But don't say goodbye.
Just take one last look
At these northwestern skies.
