[00:00.00] The Shores of the Swilly
[00:41.17] By the shores of the Swilly,
[00:45.79] two children at play
[00:50.20] The king of the castle,
[00:54.23] the queen of the may
[00:59.39] Just me and my sister,
[01:03.64] in a world of pretend
[01:07.75] Where the sun would keep shining,
[01:12.19] the day never end
[01:22.66] By the shores of the Swilly,
[01:27.06] now with kids of our own
[01:31.45] Another year over,
[01:35.57] and see how they've grown
[01:40.81] Then we'd watch the last sunset,
[01:45.60] and walk arm in arm
[01:49.43] Till I see you next summer;
[01:53.34] God keep you from harm
[01:59.68] And if I was a flier
[02:04.23] who crashed now and then,
[02:08.53] she would put me together
[02:12.87] and fly me again.
[02:23.07]
[02:56.81] And if I was a flier
[03:00.73] who crashed now and then,
[03:04.96] she would put me together
[03:09.20] and fly me again.
[03:15.40] By the shores of the Swilly,
[03:20.69] with an aching inside
[03:25.40] I'll watch as her body
[03:29.79] is raised from the tide...
[03:37.03] Her life has been taken,
[03:41.66] and I'll never know why
[03:49.06] but I feel in that moment,
[03:54.87] a part of me died...
