Chris De Burgh - Lonely Sky Lyrics
The cold north wind they call la biseIs swirling round about my knees,Trees are crying leaves into the river;Im huddled in this french cafeI never thought Id see the day,When winters here and summers really over,Even the birds have packed up and gone,Theyre flying south with their song,And my love, she too has gone, she had to fly,Take care, its such a lonely sky,Theyll trap your wings my love and hold your flight,Theyll build a cage and steal your only sky,Fly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is high,Im sailing beside you in your lonely sky...The old cathedral lights are lowShe and I wed often go thereTo admire and sometimes kneel in prayer;Lords and ladies lie in stone,Hand in hand from long ago,And though their hands are cold theyll love forever,Even the choir rehearses those songsFor christmas is not long.And alone, I sing my song, she had to fly.Out there its such a lonely sky,Theyll trap your wings my love and hold your flight,Theyll build a cage and steal your only sky,Fly away, fly to me, fly when the wind is high,Im sailing beside you in your lonely sky...Fly away, fly to me, and if you need my love,Im sailing beside you in your lonely sky...Ill come in with the dawn,Im sailing beside you in your lonely sky...On the wings of the mourn,Im sailing beside you in your lonely sky...Above the world well be flying,Im sailing beside you in your lonely sky...And though their hands are cold theyll love forever.
