OVERBOARD
Breathe in and breathe out.
Gold and silver lay me down.
There's a light across the water
Shining bright on the sea
And it's bolder than the darkness
Of a thousand fathoms deep.
Even if black horses come for me
All my tears roll into the sea
Drawing my sweetheart closer
And closer to me
So let them haul me Overboard.

BLACK HORSES
Even if Black Horses come for me...
I'll wash my face in the rain
I'll wash my feet in the waves
There is courage at the waters edge
To find my way home again.
Nighidh mi m’ aodann san uisge
Nighidh mi mo chasan 'sna tuinn
An cois a’ chuain gheibh mi misneachd
An saoghal seo fhàgail ’s falbh dhachaigh
Ged a thigeadh eich dhubh’ air mo thòir
Ruidhlidh mo dheòir dhan a’ chuan
A’ sìor tharraing mo leannain nas dlùithe dham ionnsaigh
Is slaodadh iad mise thar a cuairt-bheòil

FINLAY RISE
Fall asleep
With open eyes
That burn like pyres on the beach.
Let the tide take
These bad dreams far from me.
Before the dawn
She will rescue me
Before my light goes out at sea.
Then wake with the taste
Of tears and ashes on my cheek.
Far from Finlay Rise
Where only the mangroves creak and sigh
A lost loves lullaby
Calling me back from Finlay Rise
Don't let me drown in torrid slumbers
On Finlay Rise...
Finlay Rise from canyons deep
Don't sleep my dear
Don't sleep.
Send me a kiss in a shell
I'll put it to my ear.
What will I hear?
And close my eyes and wake me up...
Far from Finlay Rise
Where only the mangroves creak and sigh
A lost loves lullaby
Is calling me back from Finlay Rise.

ALL THE WAY HOME
I met a man with black coal for buttons
I met a man with arms made from branches
In a frozen garden
When our cheeks were like roses
And I want you to follow
Through the fields that we worked on
Over rock walls and stiles
Past the horse in the stable
All The Way Home...
I can hear a train whistle blowin
I can see smoke on the horizon
And if we run we'll make it
Yes I know we're gonna make it
All The Way Home...
To make a man with black coal for buttons
To make a man with arms made from branches.
