Chris de Burgh "Lonely Sky" lyrics

Lonely Sky

That cold north wind they call "La Bise"Is swirling round about my kneesTrees are crying leaves into the riverI'm huddled in this French caféI never thought I'd see the dayBut winter's here and summer's really over

Even the birds have packed up and goneThey're flying south with their songAnd my love, she too has gone, she had to fly

Take care, it's such a lonely skyThey'll trap your wings, my love, and hold your flightThey'll build a cage and steal your only skyFly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is highI'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky

The old cathedral lights are lowShe and I, we'd often go thereTo admire and sometimes kneel in prayerLords and ladies lie in stoneHand in hand from long agoAnd though their hands are cold they'll love forever

Even the choir rehearses those songsFor Christmas is not longAnd alone, I sing my song, she had to fly

Out there it's such a lonely skyThey'll trap your wings, my love, and hold your flightThey'll build a cage and steal your only skyFly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is highI'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky

Fly away, fly to me, and if you need my loveI'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky(I'll come in with the dawn)I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky(On the wings of the morn)I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky(Above the world we'll be flying)I'm sailing beside you in your lonely sky
