Banish the Blue Days

Whenever I'm weary 

And you're nowhere near me 

I need you to be close to me 

But nothing is working 

Shadows are lurking 

Darlin’ I need you with me 

Whenever I'm lonely 

I think of you only 

Long for the day you can see 

When nothing is working 

Shadows are lurking

Darlin’ I need you with me 

You banish the blue days

Make me feel ok 

Darlin’ I need you to see 

You banish the blue days 

Do it your own way 

Darlin’ I need you with me 

Whenever you're lonely 

Think of me only 

Don't hesitate call on me 

When nothing is working 

Shadows are lurking

Don't turn away turn to me

I’ll banish your blue days

Make you feel ok 

Darlin’ what you need is me 

To banish your blue days 

I’ll do it my way 

Don’t turn away, turn to me 

Whenever I'm weary 

And you're nowhere near me 

I need you to be close to me 

But nothing is working 

Shadows are lurking 

Darlin’ I need you with me 

You banish the blue days

Make me feel ok 

Darlin’ I need you to see 

You banish the blue days 

Do it your own way 

Darlin’ I need you with me 

You banish the blue days

Make me feel ok 

Darlin’ I need you to see 

You banish the blue days 

Do it your own way 

Darlin’ I need you with me

When we were young

We had it all 

We had each other 

Till we heard our freedom call 

And even though 

I let you go 

Darling it hurt me more than 

You will ever know 

So here I stand 

Entirely free 

Only my freedom 

It don't mean a thing to me 

I'd rather be 

Entirely yours 

Years have gone by 

And still my love for you endures 

So long ago 

You went away 

I was to wait for you 

And you'd be back someday 

What can I do?

What can I say 

Your empty promises

They seem so far away 

So here I stand 

Entirely free 

Only my freedom 

It don't mean a thing to me 

I'd rather be 

Entirely yours 

Years have gone by 

And still my love for you endures 

All our ideas 

Got in the way 

We got our freedom but we had a price to pay 

Life has moved on

Don't say I'm wrong 

Don't ever blame me that I chose to move along

So here I stand 

Entirely free 

Only my freedom 

It don't mean a thing to me 

I'd rather be 

Entirely yours 

Years have gone by 

And still my love for you endures 

So here I stand 

Entirely free 

Only my freedom 

It don't mean a thing to me 

I'd rather be 

Entirely yours 

Years have gone by 

And still my love for you endures 

How can we have come to this?

My heart was wide open 

Our love meant so much to me 

Now it's badly broken 

Such love only comes around

Once in every lifetime 

So hard to have you decide 

It was not the right time 

What can I do?

To take your pain away 

Pain that's keeping you back from me 

They say that my love will cease 

They say I'll recover 

Let me hold you one more time 

Try it last forever

What can I do?

To take your pain away 

Pain that's keeping you back from me 

Let me hold you my darling one more time 

I’ll and make the moment last forever

What can I do?

When will such love ever cease 

When will I recover 

That can only be the day 

Hell is freezing over

What can I do?

To take your pain away 

Pain that's keeping you back from me 

Let me hold you my darling one more time 

I’ll and make the moment last forever

What can I do?

To take your pain away 

Pain that's keeping you back from me 

Let me hold you my darling one more time 

I’ll and make the moment last forever

My own little one 

I am watching over you 

I can hear the things 

That they keep telling you 

I am here little one 

Let me take you by the hand

Let me tell you what I can see

I can see you're beautiful 

God has made you perfect 

Never you believe them when they say

You are any less 

Anytime you need me 

Listen to your heart 

And you know I'm watching over you 

Angel of my heart 

My own little one 

You have stole my heart away 

Wish I had more time 

For the things I would say 

But I'm here little one 

Let me take you by the hand

Let me tell you what I can see

I can see you're beautiful 

God has made you perfect 

Never you believe them when they say

You are any less 

Anytime you need me 

Listen to your heart 

And you know I'm watching over you 

Angel of my heart

Everything about you 

Causes me to doubt you

How is it you draw me to be near you 

Only you can sell me 

Anything you tell me 

Only you can turn the tide completely 

I admit that you've allured me 

In a very powerful way 

Gotta take it easy 

Till the day that I can say 

You are mine 

I can see that I'll be 

Any way you want me 

You and I are one as far as I see 

Each and every season 

Has to have a reason 

Maybe we are just marching to our own drum 

I admit that you've allured me 

In a very powerful way 

Gotta take it easy 

Till the day that I can say 

Gotta take it easy 

Till the day that I can say 

You are mine 

Everything about you 

Causes me to doubt you

How is it you draw me to be near you (to be near you) 

Only you can sell me 

Anything you tell me 

Only you can turn the tide completely (so completely)

I admit that you've allured me 

In a very powerful way 

Gotta take it easy 

Till the day that I can say 

Gotta take it easy 

Till the day that I can say 

You are mine

The first time I met you 

I knew we were meant to be 

I still can't remember 

Why I let you go 

I never could tell you 

The way that I long for you 

To make your way home to me 

Through wind and snow 

Macushla, my darling

My darling, macushla 

I wish I had known how to 

Ask you to stay

Today when I saw you 

Again after all those years 

I tried to remember 

Why you walked away. 

You gave me your secrets 

They still mean so much to me I wish I had known how to 

Ask you to stay

Macushla, my darling, 

My darling, macushla 

I wish I had known how to 

Ask you to stay

Still nothing has changed in 

Those eyes that I know so well 

And memories come rushing 

They're locked deep inside

We both made our choices 

We both turned away from it 

It's too late to win back 

The love we denied

Macushla, my darling, 

My darling, macushla 

I wish I had known how to 

Ask you to stay

Macushla, my darling, 

My darling, macushla 

I wish I had known how to 

Ask you to stay

Something between us was magic 

You gave me my perfect day 

How come it ended up tragic? 

Good times so far away 

Try to see clearly my darling 

See why it ended this way 

I tried to talk to you darling 

I said what I had to say 

One thing we should have agreed on 

Some places magic can't go 

Magic defeated us darling 

Why I don't know

Too close for comfort my darling 

I gotta try and let go 

Got to move on now my darling 

Wishing never made it so 

Something between us was magic 

You gave me my perfect day 

How come it ended up tragic? 

Sweet dreaming slipped away 

One thing we should have agreed on 

Some places magic can't go 

Magic defeated us darling 

Why I don't know

Something between us was magic

Something between us was magic

Lone, swinging, child

I stop a moment watching

As you sing, high and free

And through your eyes I see the world

As it once seemed to me

Beautiful child

You watch the world go by you

And you see only good

And innocently ask when things 

Don’t make sense to you

Innocent child

With eyes so full of wonder

A creation so pure

A little soul untainted

May your innocence endure

Let us hold onto you

And to this precious moment

As you swing high and free

I bless the hope you give me

And the love you awake

Somewhere deep inside me

Precious child, will you hold onto me

Beautiful child

You watch the world go by you

And you see only good

And innocently ask when things 

Don’t make sense to you

Let us hold onto you

And to this precious moment

As you swing high and free

I bless the hope you give me

And the love you awake

Somewhere deep inside me

Precious child, will you hold onto me

Lone, swinging, child

I stop a moment watching

As you sing, high and free

And through your eyes I see the world

As it once seemed to me

The time has come

For what has to be

Our last embrace

They’re calling to me

The things that last

No money can buy

Our time has passed

And so hush-a-hye

So drink to me only 

My beautiful friend

I’ll cherish your place in

My heart till the end

The winds of change

Destroy every plan

And time and tide 

They wait for no man

The things that last

No money can buy

Our time has passed

And so hush-a-hye

So drink to me only 

My beautiful friend

I’ll cherish your place in

My heart till the end

The time has come

For what has to be

Our last embrace

They’re calling to me

The things that last

No money can buy

Our time has passed

And so hush-a-hye

So drink to me only 

My beautiful friend

I’ll cherish your place in

My heart till the end

So drink to me only 

My beautiful friend

I’ll cherish your place in

My heart till the end

Baby, I’ve no faith

In what you’re telling me

I won’t even try to wear a mask

Maybe you just need

To face reality

I am out of love with you at last

In you heart you know 

That what I say is true

We had planned to sing a different song

I don’t know what more

I could have done for you

Now you say you see that I was wrong

All along

Surely you can tell

It’s not going well

Nothing you can say

Will make it OK

I don’t take your promise

As a guarantee

Every line designed

To make me stay

I know there are things

You’re still not telling me

How can I believe a word you say

One more day?

Surely you can tell

It’s not going well

Nothing you can say

Will make it OK

Surely you can hear

I keep on saying No

And now it’s my time

To go.

I must go.

Surely you can tell

It’s not going well

Nothing you can say

Will make it OK

Surely you can hear

I keep on saying No

And now it’s my time

To go.

I must go.

I don’t understand

How we went so wrong

We both tried our hardest, my love

I need to move on

Lingered far too long

Don’t keep holding on now

My love

I’m sorry

It’s over

I never meant to hurt you

Believe me

I’m sorry, my love

I never meant to break your heart

Seems so long ago

Now our time is gone

Good time to remember my love

I need to move on

Lingered far too long

Don’t keep holding on now

My love

I’m sorry

It’s over

I never meant to hurt you

Believe me

I’m sorry, my love

I never meant to break your heart

Somehow we went wrong

Now our time is gone

Nothing is the same now 

My love

I need to move on

Lingered far too long

Don’t keep holding on now

My love

I’m sorry

It’s over

I never meant to hurt you

Believe me

I’m sorry, my love

I never meant to break your heart

Something's calling I can tell 

Even though you hide it well 

But you've no need for concern 

I'll be here when you return 

Nothing more that I can say 

We survived, those were the days 

Blow ye winds over the sea 

Bring my love back home to me 

We have still so much to learn 

We get back just what we earn 

When the moon shines on the lake 

I'll be there, make no mistake

It was all so long ago 

When I played Sing As You Go 

I awoke later to see 

You were still waiting for me 

Nothing more that I can say 

We survived, those were the days 

Blow ye winds over the sea 

Bring my love back home to me 

We have still so much to learn 

We get back just what we earn 

When the moon shines on the lake 

I'll be there, make no mistake

Something's calling I can tell 

Even though you hide it well 

But you've no need for concern 

I'll be here when you return 

We have still so much to learn 

We get back just what we earn 

When the moon shines on the lake 

I'll be there, make no mistake

We have still so much to learn 

We get back just what we earn 

When the moon shines on the lake 

I'll be there, make no mistake

When the moon shines on the lake 

I'll be there, make no mistake
