Bucket of Steam 9

Lyrics > Bucket of Steam 9

MICHAEL FROM THE FOREST

I LIFT MY EYES TO THE MOUNTAINS, LOOKING FOR THE SOURCE
WILL GOOD FORTUNE COME TO ME?   I’LL PRAY TO GOD, OF COURSE

REFRAIN
NORTH WIND BLOWING ‘CROSS SLIGO BAY, THE HARBOR LIGHTS THEY CALL
OLD ST. LAWRENCE SAYS TO ME: “I’LL BREAK YOU FROM THE FALL”.

I SEEK YOUR KIND PROTECTION, YOUR HELPING HAND IT SOOTHES
PLEASE GUARD MY LOVES FROM EVIL, WHEN IT’S TIME FOR ME TO GO

REFRAIN
BLUE WATERS WARM AND FLOWING, CORAL TREASURES I HAVE FOUND
MY DARLING JAYE EMBRACES ME, “SHE NEVER LET ME DOWN”.

CHORUS
FARE THEE WELL MY DEAR SWEET FRIEND
YOUR EYES WERE SMILING TILL THE END
NOW SWEET RELEASE HAS FREED YOUR SOUL
GOODBYE DEAR FRIEND GOODBYE

SUSTAINED BY LOVE AND KINDNESS, I FIND COMFORT BY THE FIELDS
MY CAITY LIVES ON DIAMONDS, SHE’S NOTHING IF NOT REAL.

REFRAIN
I LIFT MY HEART IN THANKSGIVING, AS MY SPIRITS RISE
MY GRATEFUL SONG COMES EASY, “MY LOVES, I’M FREE, DON’T CRY”

REFRAIN
MICHAEL’S DANCING WITH THE ANGELS, HE HEARS REDEMPTION SONGS
WALKING IN THE WOODS PLAYING HIS GUITAR, SINGING WITH THE STARS

I LIE DOWN FOR MY SLUMBER, YET FEEL LIKE I’M AWAKE
SIR RICHARD AM I SAFEAGAIN, OR, DID MY SHIP JUST SAIL AWAY?

(REPEAT CHORUS 3 x)
