Intro: verse 1 N.C. I am high upon a mountain When morning comes around it Where I was all with my love Birds fly upon the way verse 2 There horses go a-riding Messengers bring tidings And every day they sail away Like the sun beneath the sea Search where no ships are sailing No sound of hearts breaking Or down in deepest Africa No one will find him there But down the sands of evening In days of my love leaving You will hear the dance rise all around The Isle of Malachy Instrumental verse 3 Now waves of stars are breaking They lie on shores of evening They burn at my eyes dreaming Like fire on the sea verse 4 I will make a prayer forever I will go with light and thunder And tell each soul and stranger The tale and history Search where no ships are sailing No sound of hearts breaking Or down in deepest Africa No one will find him there But down the sands of evening In days of my love leaving You will see the fires all around The Isle of Malachy Outro:
