Evening Falls
EITHNE NI BHRAONAIN, NICKY RYAN, ROMA RYAN
When the evening falls
and the daylight is fading
From within me calls
Could it be I am sleeping?
For a moment I stray
then it holds me completely
Close to home, I cannot say
Close to home, feeling so far away
As I walk the room
there before me a shadow
From another world
where no other can follow
Carry me to my own
To where I can cross over
Close to home, I cannot say
Close to home, feeling so far away
Forever searching, never right
I am lost in oceans of night
Forever hoping I can find memories
Those memories I left behind
Even though I leave
will I go on believing
that this time is real
- am I lost in this feeling?
Like a child passing through
Never knowing the reason
I am home, I know the way
I am home, feeling oh, so far away
