Tumbling into the Sea - Trad air, Lyrics Nóirin Lynch

The Fiddle Case, (a north Clare band, check them out), play Coleman's March regularly and I love the air. One evening I found myself adding lyrics and somehow the tune became a song.

lyrics

Daylight twinkles through the blinds,
The sun is warming the sky
And to a barking dog and the chattering of little birds,
I open up a weary eye
And there’s coffee smells and tall church bells,
The radio is singing a song.
And my heart is full of everything that’s possible
Tumbling around in a song.

But sometimes when I hear a reel whispering across the breeze
Oh my heart falls down like a mountain side in summer time
Tumbling into the sea.

Night time flickers urban bright
The neon shadows abound
And there music here and there’s entertainment everywhere
Going for the price of a song.
But those cardboard spaces, pop up places, cast a shadow too long
So when my heads too full of everything that’s possible
I turn it all around with a song

Then sometimes when I hear a reel, whispering across the breeze
Then my heart lifts up like that mountain side in summer time
Tumbling into the sea.
