lyrics

Walking from the valley of Elah,
Down to where the flowers that bloom.
People raise their hands and they sing to the heavens,
Like we’re saviours of a world renewed.

The leaves that flit and glide before us,
The blossoms in a victory dance.
A sea of voices ring and the melody calls us,
To the quays here on the river we stand.

Sha La La

We watch our ship make waves towards us,
Commanded by mysterious force.
Close enough to board and we climb up the rigging,
And return to our uncharted course.

The woman reappears to guide us,
She paints a map of stars in the sky.
The only way is forward and on to the openings,
That surface as the water ignites.

Tell me how we make it out,
Tell me where we go from here,
Tell me how we make it out,
And save our people far from here.

Slowly now we take her onward,
Steady at the helm we see,
All the people bid us farewell as they leave us to the mercy of the clouded wing.
We turn the sail and travel further,
Measuring the rising wind,
Helpless to the wishes of Manannán, taking us to places that we’ve never been.
