Title track. Simply a song about following your heart and being there for the good things to happen. Love, fate, success or failure. They all require a chance.
lyrics
A red wool sweater wrapped around her chest
And silky raven hair
She locks the oak door and pockets the key
There’s a brave new world out there
A promise to herself, she would do her best
The adventures she would share
Thru the mist and the rain, with her head held high
She left old county clare.
A long black coat and a grey tweed cap
Leather boots all shiny and new
Kissed his mama goodbye, and down to the pub
Told his mates what he planned to do.
He picks up the tab and finishes his pint
The end of a hard fought day
When the morning comes, and the sun shows bright
Board the ship , and sail away
Board the ship and sail away, from the shores of galway bay.
Three days out of port, gazing over the rail
Out across the open sea
With her windblown hair, what a sight to see
Emerald eyes staring back at me
“Your a thing of beauty on this real fine day!
And I wear my heart on my sleeve.
You look like you’ve been waiting for a man like me.
This I do believe.
I believe I’ve never met a lad so bold.
But it’s true all the words you say.
I’ve left my home for the stories untold
Boarded this ship and sailed away.
Who knows what desires or the future brings
But love waits for those who dare.
Like the lad and the maiden sailing on angels wings
One day from county clare.
