2.Wild Child

Lyrics:Roma Ryan
Music:Enya
Arranger:Enya/Nicky Ryan

Ever close your eyes
ever stop and listen
ever feel alive
and you've nothing missing
you don't need a reason
let the day go on and on

Let the rain fall down
everywhere around you
give into it now
let the day surround you
you don't need a reason
let the rain go on and on

What a day
what a day to take to
what a way
what a way to make it through
what a day
what a day to take to
a wild child

Only take the time
from the helter skelter
every day you find
everything's in kilter
you don't need a reason
let the day go on and on

Every summer sun
every winter evening
every spring to come
every autumn leaving
you don't need a reason
let it all go on and on

What a day
what a day to take to
what a way
what a way to make it through
what a day
what a day to take to
a wild child

(Repeat)


3.Only Time

Lyrics:Roma Ryan
Music:Enya
Arranger:Enya/Nicky Ryan

Who can say where the road goes,
Where the day flows?
Only time...

And who can say if your love grows,
As your heart chose?
Only time...

(chants)

Who can say why your heart sighs,
As your love flies?
Only time...

And who can say why your heart cries,
When your love lies?
Only time...

(chants)

Who can say when the roads meet?
That they might be -
In your heart...

And who can say when the day sleeps,
If the night keeps all your heart?
...night keeps all your heart...

(extended chants)

Who can say if your love grows,
As your heart chose?
Only time...

And who can say where the road goes?
Where the day flows?
Only time...

Who knows?
Only time...

Who knows?
Only time...

5.Deora Ar Mo Chro

Lyricist:Roma Ryan/Enya
Writer(s):Enya
Mixing:Enya/Nicky Ryan

How beautiful the day and night;
the earth is singing in the wind,
the voices rise and touch the sky
telling all the earth's believing,
and in the night sighs fall down,
and from the skies sighs fall down on me.

And when I move away from view
my voice is singing in the wind,
it rises up to touch the sky
telling all that I believe in,
and from the night earth shall sing,
and from the night earth shall sing,
and from the night earth shall sing again.

Ba dheas an l go ohe
Na gltha binne i mo thaobh
'S aoibhneas i gach it gan gruaim
has ar mo chro go deo

Ma shilaim na laetha beo
An ghrian's an ghealach ar mo chl
Nl uaim ach smaointe mo shaoil
Deora ar mo chro go brn
He-a-ro
He-a-ro
He-a-o-ro


6.Flora's Secret

Lyrics:Roma Ryan
Music:Enya
Arranger:Enya/Nicky Ryan

Lovers in the long grass
look above them
only they can see
where the clouds are going
only to discover
dust and sunlight
ever make the sky so blue
Afternoon is hazy
river flowing
all around the sounds
moving closer to them
telling them the story
told by flora
dreams they never knew

Silver willows
tears from Persia
those who come
from a far-off island
winter Chanterelle lies
under cover
Glory-of-the-sun in blue

Some they know as passion
some as freedom
some they know as love
and the way it leaves them
summer snowflake
for a season
when the sky above is blue
when the sky above is blue

Lying in the long grass
close beside her
giving her the name
of the one the moon loves
this will be the day she will remember
when she knew his heart was
loving in the long grass
close beside her
whispering of love
and the way it leaves them
lying in the long grass
in the sunlight
they believe it's true love
and from all around them
flora's secret
telling them of love
and the way it breathes
and looking up from eyes of amaranthine
they can see the sky is blue
knowing that their love is true
dreams they never knew
and the sky above is blue


7.Fallen Embers

Lyrics:Roma Ryan
Music:Enya
Arranger:Enya/Nicky Ryan

Once, as my heart remember,
all the stars were fallen embers.
Once, when night seemed forever
I was with you.
Once, in the care of morning
in the air was all belonging.
Once, when that day was dawning.
I was with you.

How far we are from morning,
how far are we
and the stars shining through the darkness,
falling in the air.

Once, as the night was leaving
into us our dreams were weaving.
Once, all dreams were worth keeping.
I was with you.

Once, when our hearts were singing,
I was with you.

9.Pilgrim

Lyrics:Roma Ryan
Music:Enya
Arranger:Enya/Nicky Ryan

Pilgrim, how you journey
on the road you chose
to find out where the winds die
and where the stories go.
All days come from one day
that must you must know,
you cannot change what's over
but only where you go.

One way leads to diamonds,
one way leads to gold,
another leads you only
to everything you're told.
In your heart you wonder
which of these is true;
the road that leads to nowhere,
the road that leads to you.

Will you find the answer
in all you say and do?
Will you find the answer
In you?

Each heart is a pilgrim,
each one wants to know
the reason why the winds die
and where the stories go.
Pilgrim, in your journey
you may travel far,
for pilgrim it's a long way
to find out who you are...
Pilgrim, it's a long way
to find out who you are...

Pilgrim, it's a long way
to find out who you are...


10.One By One

Lyrics:Roma Ryan/Enya
Music:Enya
Arranger:Enya/Nicky Ryan

Here am I
yet another goodbye!
He says Adis, says Adi,
and do you know why
she won't break down and cry?
she says Adis, says Adis, Goodbye.
One by one my leaves fall.
One by one my tales are told.

It's no lie
she is yearning to fly.
She says Adis, says Adis,
and now you know why
he's a reason to sign
she says Adis, says Adis, Goodbye.

One by one my leaves fall.
One by one my tales are told.

My, oh my!
she was aiming too high.
He says Adis, says Adis,
and now you know why
there's no moon in her sky
he says Adis, says Adis, Goodbye.
No Goodbyes
for love brightens their eyes.
Don't say Adis, say Adis,
and do you know why
there's a love that won't die?
don't say Adis, say Adis, Goodbye.

don't say Adis, say Adis, Goodbye.
don't say Adis, say Adis, Goodbye.
don't say Adis, say Adis, Goodbye.

Lazy old day
rolling away
dreaming the day away
don't want to go
now that I'm in the flow
crazy amazing day

One red balloon
floats to the moon
just let it fly away
I only know
that I'm longing to go
back to my lazy day

And how it sings and how it sighs
and how it never stays
And how it rings and how it cries
and how it sails away... away... away....
