[00:18.22]Like an arc, two lovers come
[00:19.96]From their own place beneath the sun
[00:21.90]That shines on individual souls
[00:23.28]Feeds us, keeps each one of us whole
[00:26.15]Two hearts don't beat as one
[00:27.59]Each one listens to our own drum
[00:30.03]Slowly we come to touch
[00:31.47]To share the fruit we want so much
[00:33.53]
[00:36.71]We have been holding back the river
[00:42.72]
[00:45.78]We almost drowned before
[00:48.71]
[00:52.90]But love has changed forever
[00:58.46]
[01:01.96]It's taking prisoners no more
[01:04.53]
[01:08.50]So we walk to the Grand Canal
[01:10.13]A Dublin woman and a country pal
[01:12.06]Where the city is such a perfect place
[01:13.75]Swans glide in total grace
[01:15.94]Kavanagh sits in a morning dream
[01:17.63]Smiles at the familiar scene
[01:19.69]Of your brown eyes, your red hair
[01:21.62]Your voice so soft, your skin so fair
[01:24.18]
[01:26.75]We have been holding back the river
[01:32.56]
[01:35.13]We almost drowned before
[01:38.12]
[01:42.81]But love has changed forever
[01:48.56]
[01:51.81]It's taking prisoners no more
[01:56.16]
[02:20.35]We have been holding back the river
[02:26.29]
[02:29.54]We almost drowned before
[02:31.91]
[02:36.22]But love has changed forever
[02:41.73]
[02:45.10]It's taking prisoners no more
