Lift the Wings (Song from Riverdance) - Sheoda
Lyricist:Bill Whelan
Composer:Bill Whelan
How can the small flowers grow
If the wild winds blow
And the cold snow is all around
Where will the frail birds fly
If their homes on high
Have been torn down to the ground
Lift the wings that carry me away from here and
Fill the sail that breaks the line to home
When I'm miles and miles apart from you
I'm beside you when I think of you a Stóirín a Grá
How can a tree stand tall
If a rain won't fall
To wash it's branches down
How can the heart survive
Can it stay alive
If it's love's denied for long
Lift the wings that carry me away from here and
Fill the sail that breaks the line to home
When I'm miles and miles apart from you
I'm beside you when I think of you a Stóirín
Ohh
Lift the wings that carry me away from here and
Lift the wings that carry me away from here and
Fill the sail that breaks the line to home
When I'm miles and miles apart from you
I'm beside you when I think of you a Stóirín
And I'm with you as I dream of you a Stóirín
And a song will bring you near
To me a Stóirín a Grá
