[00:00.00]Mary's Eyes - Gaelic Storm
[00:15.07]Mary's eyes are startlin' blue
[00:17.35]
[00:19.25]And her hair's Newcastle gold
[00:21.69]
[00:23.01]And she walks the thin white line
[00:25.44]
[00:26.02]Between the body and the soul
[00:29.38]
[00:30.83]She's as faithful to her history
[00:33.79]
[00:34.61]As a novice to his fast
[00:37.84]
[00:38.45]For she's standin' on the
[00:40.91]Bones of Ireland's past
[00:43.82]
[00:45.78]She's singin' of the troubles
[00:49.43]
[00:50.11]And the fire in the land
[00:53.15]
[00:53.88]'Til I can almost feel the famine
[00:57.15]
[00:57.93]Slippin' through my tremblin' hand
[01:00.93]
[01:01.94]And I wonder as I hear her
[01:04.96]
[01:05.52]That the spirit still shines through
[01:08.57]
[01:09.36]And she can reach across the ocean
[01:12.51]
[01:13.29]Deep and break my heart in two
[01:19.50]
[01:26.54]Mary's wise and she is foolish
[01:29.78]
[01:30.64]She's as constant as the tide
[01:33.72]
[01:34.26]For it's a woman's heart that beats
[01:37.72]Beneath that stubborn Irish pride
[01:41.26]
[01:42.07]We are saints and we are sinners
[01:45.34]
[01:45.92]We are heroes we are thieves
[01:48.93]
[01:49.64]We are all of us beginners
[01:52.90]
[01:53.65]On the road to Galilee
[01:56.13]
[01:57.54]She's singin' of the troubles
[02:00.81]
[02:01.38]And the fire in the land
[02:04.58]
[02:05.23]'Til I can almost feel the famine
[02:08.42]
[02:09.35]Slippin' through my tremblin' hand
[02:12.41]
[02:13.36]And I wonder as I hear her
[02:16.75]That the spirit still shines through
[02:20.63]And she can reach across the ocean
[02:23.54]
[02:24.48]Deep and break my heart in two
[02:30.70]
[02:57.20]So let us hoist a pint of silence
[03:00.58]
[03:01.45]To the east where Ireland lies
[03:04.47]
[03:05.31]And we will stare across the waters
[03:08.46]
[03:09.13]For a glimpse of Mary's eyes
[03:12.23]
[03:13.09]We are ships without a harbor
[03:16.13]
[03:16.80]We are sailors on dry land
[03:20.02]
[03:20.79]And the song goes on forever
[03:23.79]
[03:24.83]Even though the record can't
[03:27.65]
[03:28.55]She's singin' of the troubles
[03:31.58]
[03:32.29]And the fire in the land
[03:35.47]
[03:36.07]'Til I can almost feel the famine
[03:39.39]
[03:40.27]Slippin' through my tremblin' hand
[03:43.86]And I wonder as I hear her
[03:47.16]
[03:47.73]That the spirit still shines through
[03:51.56]And she can reach across the ocean
[03:54.78]
[03:55.40]Deep and break my heart in two
