The Saw Doctors

The Saw Doctors - Carry Me Away lyrics

Your rating:
This song was inspired by Ray Buckly , who loved to fish Lough Corrib. His final wish was fulfilled when his ashes were scattered over the waters of the lake.



In the twilight of the evening

Follow the tail light trail

Like fairy lights in the boreens

On the drumlins of the lake

And fill the air with stories

From early until late

And fill your empty glasses

Where I lie in wait



Carry me away



And when the moment feels right

Take me to the shore

With your torches and your flashlights

Be careful in the boats

Turn north at rabbit island

And up past green fields bay

May the night be calm and gentle

And the moonlight light your way



Carry me away



And some where up near inchagoill

In the embers of the night

Switch of all the engines

At the birth of dawns first light

And someone sing a happy song

When everyone's arrived

And scatter me forever

Where I've felt most alive



Carry me away



Where I'll hear the water lapping

Up against the island

See the may flies dapping

Hear the trout a-rising

And see the camp fire burning

And the oul' black kettle boiling

And hear a reel a-singing

Off towards the horizon



Carry me away
