you are the air that i breathe today
you are sky let me fly away
and i will hear your voice on every breeze
and i’ll see your face, your face...

i don’t want a fool for a heart
i don’t want to breakdown and fall apart
i just want to love you, my dear
i just want to colour you with every hue
and stay between the lines
//
inside we’re almost home
before you’ll lead, i’ll follow
even the sun don’t shine
on lonely hearts in shadow
your eyes
your song
you’re my forever long
let’s walk into the evening sun
//
let’s leave the rain behind for a while
hold you in a nutshell and light a fire
moments last forever, my dear
turning tides between land and sky
while smiling hand in hand in hand in hand

Our Walls Are Paper Thin

i want to fold my arms around you
before jesus comes knocking on your door
i’m gonna raise hell’s fire and fury
to keep angels from taking up your soul
oh, i love you in waves of pure pain
oh, i love you
//
but sometimes you win and sometimes you lose
and sometimes it rains
//
well our doors are always open
our walls are paper thin
who’s ever ready to say goodbye
when jesus himself walks in
oh, i love you in waves of pure pain
oh, i love you
//
but sometimes you win
and sometimes you lose
and sometimes it rains

wiping my plate clean
on a mountain long retreat
bathing lines of sleet
i remember her loving me once
the past is where we’ll meet
on a ripple view of the sea
mumbling words through the air
i’ll take her hand by the mountain cois fhéar
//
she is the hammer / i am the thumb
she is the trigger / i am the gun
she is the rays / i am the sun
she is the law / i can’t outrun
//
watching our babies sleep
through tired gritted teeth
hoping their love is stronger
than autumn shafts of wheat
taking my woman’s hand
at nolan’s dancing parade
floating leaves through swirling round
and round and round and round
love is enough

pushing through the streets on an open top bus
sitting next to you for a different view
of the city you missed
where you had your first kiss
with a boy from school
and he played the fool
and praying for the rains to fall down
in rivers or buckets
i don’t give a shit
driving you into my arms
//
oh mercy, how did we ever give up
why did we ever give up
when we thought it was absolute love
oh mercy, how did we fall out of love
why did we ever give up
when we thought it was absolute love

she burns out the gas in my lungs
pumps pints of blood through my vein
she’s everything everything everything i need
my constant light in the night sky
a wave washes clean, a wind wipes dry
she’s everything everything everything and here
i’m sick of eating
and i’m sick of all the shit around me falling to pieces
until i met you
she’s the mother of sisters that finds roses in may
caring heart by night, tough as nails by day
everything everything everything that’s dear
my constant light in the night sky
a wave washes clean, a wind wipes dry
everything everything everything that’s clear
she puts wind in my sails
and watches me cry
the tears that make rainbows in a dusken sky
oh to be in love

you better run, you better hide
you better run beyond those trees
it’s never easy when you’re falling
it’s never easy when you fall on your knees
//
but the consequences of breaking the heart of a murdering feline
is a bullet in the head, you bleed til you’re dead
from the smoking barrel of her gun
we’ll meet head on
and share a smile
we’ll find the sun behind those clouds
we’ll hold love with both hands
but falls through like grains of sand
//
but the consequences of breaking the heart of a murdering feline
is a bullet in the head, you bleed til you’re dead
from the smoking barrel of her gun
and all the while she sings to me
i’m your roman empire
she keeps looking at me while she’s falling asleep
i’ll be your rolling thunder
i will always love you

there’s no greater love than the love for your child
forged from birth and grown through time
where can we go from here
always on my mind my dear
//
people shout out, they clap and cheer
i wanna be your hero
who never ever ever ever ever turns their back on fear
who never ever ever ever ever turns their back on healing
who never ever ever ever ever turns their back on love
there’s no better place than here with you
with your head on my chest and the lights down low
falling deep in dreal, let’s go
try not to wake the kids, you know
//
people shout out, they clap and cheer
i wanna be your hero
who never ever ever ever ever turns their back on fear
who never ever ever ever ever turns their back on healing
who never ever ever ever ever turns their back on love
fear // healing // feelings // love // you

Alive - Cork Opera House 2019

Only recently discovered Mick and now can't stop listening to these songs, nor do I want to stop. Great melancholy lyrics, love his humor too, and his laugh on this live album. So glad I found him. He was recommended to me as someone I might like since I am a big fan of David Keenan and Glen Hansard.

Amazing. Hushed but dark, a cold, bright spark on a moonless night. Both restrained and deeper than it seems at first.
