Fan Liom (Come Back to Me)

Текст песни

[Verse 1: Male, English] You left your silver ring beside the kitchen sink The kettle clicked; I watched the whole room shrink Your coat still held the rain from Galway Bay I had a thousand things and none to say [Verse 2: Female, Irish Gaelic] Fan liom, a ghrá, go maidin bhán Tá do lámh fós te i mo lámh D’imigh an lá, ach fanann an gealltanas I gcroí nach géilleann don fhuacht ná don achar [Pre-Chorus: Duet] If the road runs black, if the tide runs wild I will find your voice across the miles [Chorus: Duet, English and Irish Gaelic] Hold me where the old stones meet the sea Stay until the storm lets us be Fan liom, fan liom, a ghrá mo chroí Through every loss, come back to me [Verse 3: Male, English rap] I took the night train north with your note in my sleeve Four lines in blue ink I was scared to believe “Don’t make a home out of what we regret” I read it at dawn; I’m not finished yet I know I went quiet when you needed a name You stood in the doorway and shouldered the blame So here is the truth, with the pride stripped away: I want you beside me, not someday—today [Bridge: Female, Irish Gaelic] Ní hé an fharraige a scarann sinn Ach an tost a d’fhágamar eadrainn Abair liom anois go bhfanfaidh tú Beidh mé anseo nuair a fhillfidh tú [Final Chorus: Duet] Hold me where the old stones meet the sea Stay until the storm lets us be Fan liom, fan liom, a ghrá mo chroí Through every loss, come back to me Hold me close; let the hard years fall I choose your hand, I choose it all Fan liom, fan liom, a ghrá mo chroí Through every loss, come back to me [Outro: Duet, soft] Fan liom Come back to me
