Abhainn
Oh, the wind was picking up
Around the trees standing in teams
Huddled holding onto their unified beliefs
In the whirls I'd hear them calling, asking me to leave
But I couldn't leave
At the stream outside my bestfriend's house, I had heard the stories
Of the people come to go away with the waters fury
And I thought that I could be cleaned
By standing at the edge
But I just had to get in
Had to feel it on my skin
But I heard the current say, "There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
In the whirls I'd hear them calling
Asking me to leave
Come sway, come sway with me
In the whirls I'd hear them calling
Asking me to leave
Come sway, come sway with me
Come sway I'll set you free
Come sway, come sway with me
Come sway I'll set you free
I'll set you free
I heard the current say, "There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
Around the trees standing in teams
Huddled holding onto their unified beliefs
In the whirls I'd hear them calling, asking me to leave
But I couldn't leave
At the stream outside my bestfriend's house, I had heard the stories
Of the people come to go away with the waters fury
And I thought that I could be cleaned
By standing at the edge
But I just had to get in
Had to feel it on my skin
But I heard the current say, "There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
In the whirls I'd hear them calling
Asking me to leave
Come sway, come sway with me
In the whirls I'd hear them calling
Asking me to leave
Come sway, come sway with me
Come sway I'll set you free
Come sway, come sway with me
Come sway I'll set you free
I'll set you free
I heard the current say, "There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
"There are things that you can't wash away"
