INTRO ||: :|| 2x
Oh my dear
your waters are wonderous clear
And the north wind
caresses my skin
~CHORUS~
You make me feel
Like I could relinquish
This body of stone and steel... and fly
And you cradle me like a lover
And rock me in your arms like a mother
With your lullaby of water and sky
Oh mo chroí
You're as deep and as wide as the sea
And you carry me so
There's nowhere that we can't go
~REPEAT CHORUS~
Oh how I wish that my hold would rip open
And you'd fill me with your love like an ocean
I would be ever so beautifully
bro-ken... You and I... You and I...
You and I... You and I...
And the sky... And the sky...
And the sky... And the sky...
Oh my queen
I want to reveal all that's never been seen
And show them your power
That blooms in your belly just like a flower
~REPEAT CHORUS~
Everything holy and everything hidden
We're holding each other, the loch and the Maiden
We go waltzing around... Merry dancers. You and I
And the sky... And the sky...
And the sky... And the sky...
("mo chroi" is pronounced, "muh cree", and is Irish for "my darling")
