Lyrics:
for a while
We sailed for St. Brendan's Fair Isle Fair Isle
We sailed for St. Brendan's Fair Isle
One night while the brethren were lying asleep
way I hope this finds you well
I hope to find you under the light of
Fair Isle cutomatic
Fair Isle cutomatic
Fair Isle cutomatic
My constant warning
Fare thee well, Enniskillen
Farewell for a while
And all your fair waters and every green isle
Your green isles will flourish
Your fair waters flow
The general synopsis at 0800
Low east of Humber 942 expected fair isle 954 by 0600 tomorrow.
New low expected 100 miles west of Shannon 974 by same time
A-callin' me it seems
Those fair Hawaiian islands
My isle of golden dreams
I hear the voice of my land
A-callin' me it seems
Those fair Hawaiian
A-callin' me it seems
Those fair Hawaiian islands
My isle of golden dreams
I hear the voice of my land
A-callin' me it seems
Those fair Hawaiian
isle of golden dreams
I hear the voice of my land
A-callin' me it seems
Those fair Hawaiian islands
My isle of golden dreams
Far to the north where the howling wind
Whips the billows of the ocean grey
There lies a fair isle, good and green
Where Christian men did brew
ashes falling on my Fair Isle sweater
No cup holders baby you gotta hold this Clicquot
I'm looking like the re-up
You looking out for Repo
They say
to fly
To Fair Isle
Maroon my casket
On the belly of a wave
And with my willow basket
Where the sea and the sandstone play
I'll gather mermaid's purses
There are warnings of gales in Hebrides and Fair Isle
Viking veering westerly... toward the Malin Sea
Batten down the hatches...under bare poles
Then I hear the wavelets murmur, as they kiss the fairy shore
Then beneath the emerald waters, sings the mermaid as of yore
And the fair Isle shines with
I love you more than these fair isles that I have fought for
Please don't you cry Sarah
For I must die Sarah
My dear Sarah I couldn't leave without
A-callin' me it seems
Those fair Hawaiian islands
My isle of golden dreams
I hear the voice of my land
A-callin' me it seems
Those fair Hawaiian
What if they don’t come
What if they don’t
What if we don’t swim
What if we don’t
Ever mention this again
Fair isle you’re speaking your truth
You’re
sad and missed his home
All he did was mope and moan
And the first time that he smiled was seeing me
For he talked of his fair isle
With a wistful,
isle of golden dreams
I hear the voice of my land
A-callin' me it seems
Those fair Hawaiian islands
My isle of golden dreams
This song was first released on the Autograph album. It is the only album it has been released on.
He was stranded in some tiny town
On fair
I hear the voice of my land
Calling me it seems
Those fair Hawaiian Islands
My isle of golden dreams.
Out of the mist, lips I have kissed, call
Where palm trees toss, where flame flowers grow..
I know an Island just as fair
Sometimes an Isle our mood to please
We fashioned them and there did
the Angels by my side
So, as long as they're looking, the good lord knows I tried
Fair Brother on the isle, I hear the herring failed to bite
May
Resplendent crown
Most priz'd by monarchs
Reigning o'er the realms
O Bless'd St George
O Patron rever'd
Enshrine this fair and sceptr'd Isle
In splendour
Street
In July
Sweet pushcarts gently gliding by
The great big city's a wondrous toy
Just made for a girl and boy
We'll turn Manhattan
Into an isle
We'll turn Manhattan
Into an isle of joy.
CHORUS 2
We'll go to Greenwich,
Where modern men itch
To be free,
And Bowling Green you'll see with
