Can You See It In Me?

Can You See it in Me?
I can see it in the sunshine
I can see it in the sea
I can see it on the skyline
Can you see it in me?
I can taste it in a fine wine
Traveled far from oversea
And I believe that you could be mine
Can you believe it in me
Come on over,
You’ll find me standing by your side
I can feel it in the daytime
And I can hear it still at night
In the morning will you be mine
Will you vanish out of sight
Come on over
You’ll find me standing by your side
Instrumental
I’m getting rid of all my worries,
Whisper them into a tree.
Let the love come on unhurried
Let it slowly set us free.
I can smell it in the bluebells
I can feel it on breeze
And all I’m asking in a nutshell,
Is can you see it in me?
Come on over
Find me standing by your side

Go Deo (Forever)

Go Deo (Forever)
Solas i m’óige, ón chéad lasair riamh,
Focail á mbreacadh i gcoipleabhar le mo thaobh,
Déagóir faoi gheasa, filiocht agus ceol,
Teocht i mo chroí, gaoth i mo sheol.
Réabhlóid gan bhrat, ach an daonnacht uilig,
Ag tochas mo cheann is ag cuimilt mo smig,
Fós faoi do chomaoin, fite i do dhraíocht,
Go maire do spiorad is go maire do ríocht...
Go deo.
Light of my youth, from the first ever ray,
Notes in a notebook, beside me to stay,
Under your spell, your musical tale,
Heat in my bones, wind in my sail
No flags flying, just all human kin,
Scratching my head, stroking my chin,
Still in your thrall, the magic comes in,
May your spirit soar and your kingdom win,
Forever
Solas i m’óige, ón chéad lasair riamh,

Réabhlóid gan bhrat, ach an daonnacht uilig,
Ag tochas mo cheann is ag cuimilt mo smig,
Fós faoi do chomaoin, fite i do dhraíocht,
Go maire do spiorad is go maire do ríocht...

Sunflower
Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy (ooh)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (ooh)
Ayy, ayy
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Needless to say, I keep her in check
She was a bad-bad, nevertheless (yeah)
Callin' it quits now, baby, I'm a wreck (wreck)
Crash at my place, baby, you're a wreck (wreck)
Needless to say, I'm keeping her in check
She was all bad-bad, nevertheless
Callin' it quits now, baby, I'm a wreck
Crash at my place, baby, you're a wreck
Thinkin' in a bad way, losin' your grip
Screamin' at my face, baby, don't trip
Someone took a big L, don't know how that felt
Lookin' at you sideways, party on tilt
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Some things you just can't refuse
She wanna ride me like a cruise
And I'm not tryna lose
Then you're left in the dust
Unless I stuck by ya
You're the sunflower
I think your love would be too much
Or you'll be left in the dust
Unless I stuck by ya
You're the sunflower
You're the sunflower
Every time I'm leavin' on you (ooh)
You don't make it easy, no (no, no)
Wish I could be there for you
Give me a reason to, oh (oh)
Every time I'm walkin' out
I can hear you tellin' me to turn around
Fightin' for my trust and you won't back down
Even if we gotta risk it all right now, oh (now)
I know you're scared of the unknown ('known)
You don't wanna be alone (alone)
I know I always come and go (and go)
But it's out of my control
And you'll be left in the dust
Unless I stuck by ya
You're the sunflower
I think your love would be too much
Or you'll be left in the dust
Unless I stuck by ya
You're the sunflower
You're the sunflower (yeah)

Her Coat And No Knickers

Her Coat And No Knickers
You told a few lies and they came back on you
So you told a hundred more until she came back to you
But she only stayed a while
Just long enough to say the kind of things left to be said
In the cold cold light of day…
And she smelled of Xmas trees, of coffee and vanilla
Calcutta after snowfall, she's no-one's stand in mother
But I drifted into her like I could run myself aground
And keep her smiling at the sight of the darkness spilling out
And I don't mind if you don't care about it
I'll get by without her arms around me
As long as I can sit on my own
In her coat and no knickers
I believe it doesn't matter So don't look at me that way
Like I should notice how you look at me that way
That's just the way you look when you look at me that way and I believe it
doesn't matter
At least not much anyway
And I don't mind …..
Instrumental bridge
I never dreamed I could be lost in a place I knew so well
But I was running on the spot in the darkness 'til I fell
And then pulling off my clothes I want to step out of my skin
And paint a tattoo on my heart shows an arrow pointing in
And I don't mind if you don't care about it
I'll get by without her arms around me……
As long as I can sit on my own
In her coat and no knickers
