Moya Brennan - Atlantic Shore lyrics

You came here from a distant shore By your side a friend and an open smile Coming over the mountains On the winding road You sit at my table As your stories unfold Here is my home now Looking out at the sea Always wanted to be there On Atlantic shore How can we listen to your heart When we cannot hear and understand ourselves With a soul full of music Still refusing to dance But you knew all the old songs You're a stranger no more Here is my home now Looking out at the sea Always wanted to be there On Atlantic shore You know it's never been easy I could have told you so Your presence will linger On Atlantic shore
