Elegy

I lit a fire on Kenmare Head
The smoke touched stars above
To try and light your way back home
Just in case your eyes were closed

I lit a fire on Kenmare Head
I strained my eyes to spy
Any a sign I saw implied
That your ship had drawn nearby

I'll look for you
I'll search toward East
Tear this world in two
'Til time has ceased

I lit a fire on Kenmare Head
I breathe in the ash and smoke
Hands in my coat to try'n keep warm
I stood upon those cliffs alone

I wait for you
To find your way
Tear this world in two
To hear you say

I know, I'm free
This world is beautiful to me
To love, to be
This world is beautiful to see

I know, I'm free
This world is beautiful to me
To love, to be
This world is beautiful to see

I lit a fire on Kenmare Head
Like I did some years ago
And as it expired, I said this prayer
For you, still lost at sea
