The Celtic Orchestra - Lift the Wings (From Riverdance)

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 its branches down?
How can the heart survive?
Can it stay alive
If its 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

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
