song lyrics
Skelling lyrics
Like mighty ships that sail atlantic foam
The skelling isles parade the kerry coast
It s a strange place
With a needle s eye
Where shipwrecks lie
CHORUS
Where the king of the world
Rested for a while
And a place for the pilgrim
A sanctuary of time
Fourteen steps to nowhere
Out of solid stone
Don t lead us to the heavens
Or lead us to the sea
The vikings came to plunder and destroy
But to this day the holy relics stand
In a blind mans cove
Where the wailing woman sighs
And the seagulls cry
CHORUS
A journey to these islands so rare
The sound of screaming souls that fill the air
A thousand wings
Against the sky
And grey seal s disguised
CHORUS
