🌸 Lyrics: Touch the Sky (by Alex Mandel and Mark Andrews)
When the cold winds are calling
And the sky is clear and bright
Misty mountains sing and beckon
Lead me out into the light
Chorus
I will ride, I will fly
Chase the wind and touch the sky
I will fly
Chase the wind and touch the sky
Where dark woods hide secrets
And mountains are fierce and bold
Deep waters hold reflections
Of times lost long ago
I will hear their every story
Take hold of my own dream
Be as strong as the seas are stormy
And proud as an eagle's scream
Chorus
🌸 Lyrics: Scarborough Fair (traditional)
Are you going to Scarborough fair?
Parsley sage rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there
He once was a true love of mine
Tell him to make me a cambric shirt
Parsley sage rosemary and thyme
Without no seam nor needlework
Then he'll be a true love of mine
Tell him to find me an acre of land
Parsley sage rosemary and thyme
Between the salt water and the sea strand
Then he'll be a true love of mine
🌸 Lyrics: Paddy's Green Shamrock Shores (traditional)
From Derry quay we sailed away
On the twenty-third of May
We were taken onboard by a pleasant crew
Bound for America
Chorus
So fare thee well my own true love
I'll think of you night and day
A place in my mind you will surely find
Although I am so far away
And when I'm alone far away from home
I'll think of the good times once more
Until I can make it back someday
to Paddy's green shamrock shores
Chorus
