Lyrics

Fallen Leaves written by Fiachra Cunningham

Bound to wander Born to Roam
When we stole ourselves out of that town
In my memories, I can see
so many roads we've been down

I got picture of who we once were
Hard to believe it's you & me
We were singin' a song - 'bout freedom and change
With a look in our eyes - like it meant everything

My my Maria, my sweet refrain
My my Lucia, fallen leaves will remain 
fallen leaves will remain

There are no secrets anymore
Here I stand, let the hammer fall
No hidden thoughts, no disguise
As you look at me with perfect eyes

Always remember the times we had
Those not with us anymore
Keep them safe, inside your heart
Keep them safe my friend

My my Maria, my sweet refrain
My my Lucia, fallen leaves will remain 
fallen leaves will remain

Come away come away come away
Come and dance away our cares
No, There's no one here but friends
Lets go out  & dance away our cares

My my Maria, my sweet refrain
My my Lucia, fallen leaves will remain 
fallen leaves will remain




Calico Sky written by Fiachra Cunningham

High in the hills carved out of a rock is a home
And living there as pretty a girl I've known
Together we'd go down to the riverbank
On such a warm day we'd look for the cool in the shade
She said I really should be getting home, my daddy won't let me stay
Chorus
Taken where the shadows fall
A setting sun will slip away
See the world through her eyes
Chasing lines across a calico sky

By the riverbank - we left our cloths to bathe
My breath stopped as I watched her body at the waters edge
Her skin was glistening in the summer light as she falls
There in the dark chilly stream - I lost myself that day
She said I really should be getting home, my daddy won't let me stay
Chorus
Taken where the shadows fall
A setting sun will slip away
See the world through her eyes
Chasing lines across a calico sky
Calico sky

Deep in the water - i watched my pretty girl
Down the rivers' stream - i could see her body sail
Her skin was glistening from her neck up to her nave'
I swam hard, fast, i reached out & she'd drifted away
Chorus
Taken where the shadows fall
A setting sun will slip away
See the world through her eyes
Chasing lines across a calico sky

In the chilly stream driftwood will float away
See the world through her eyes
Chasing lines across a calico sky
Calico Sky x4





Angela written by Fiachra Cunningham

It stings so much that tears appear, on squinted eyes
It's no surprise, the smokes thick here
The girls sat 'round the table all dolled up 
with big heels, big dreams and big hair
The pretty lights were dancing on the ceiling and the walls
You could see that she'd been crying when she came in from the cold.
Don't you go outside, because the wind beats heavy on the doors.

Can't you see the storm blowing up outside as Jimmy arrived
His winter coat was pulled up tight
His dark collar part covering his face, the cold wind hits the place
as he pulls the door behind.
Those pretty lights still dancing on the ceiling and the walls
You could see that she'd been crying when she came in from the cold.
Don't you go outside, because the wind beats heavy on the doors.

Angela can't believe it's over
Angela where will you go
Angela he's red as a rose 
Angela where will you go

Now it's getting late, he goes to leave
Outside he drops to his knees as his blood streams
Dark pass over him, head hits the ground
The shot's still ringing in his ears
She settles on the ground close by his side
and whispers to her sweet lover good-bye
said you're gonna go to sleep for a while
I said don't you go outside 
because the wind beats heavy on the doors

Angela can't believe it's over
Angela where will you go
Angela he's red as a rose 
Angela where will you go




I'll Find a way written by Fiachra Cuuningham

Lately I've been giving it thought
Maybe it's my age or something like that
And there's a song -  I nearly forgot
About the crossroads -  I'm standing at
Used to think I had nothin' to lose
I Remember myself in those crazy days
What other road  -  was I to take
I'll change my ways if it's not too late
-Chorus-
I'll find a way - I'll find a way
From the shadows - Of the lost highway
What other road was I take - I'll find a way, it's alright

Now I'm going out in this old boom town
Caught in a shower - the rain's pourin’ down
Feet splash reflections of the street lights
Running for shelter in the usual place

There’s dirty beer stains on the floor
An’ last night’s smoke still clings to the air
Welcome faces when you pass through the door
Tellin’ old stories from years before

-Chorus-
I'll find a way - I'll find a way
From the shadows - Of the lost highway
What other road was I take - I'll find a way, it's alright

I’ve been lonely & down on my luck
I couldn’t hardly see for the money I drunk
Living for Thursdays, for the rock ‘n’ roll
T’be King for a day is a sweet escape

I’ve lost days drinking, lost track of time,
Lost some friends & I lost my mind.
I’d do it again, No, I wouldn’t think twice,
It was worth it just to throw the dice

-Chorus-
I'll find a way - I'll find a way
From the shadows - Of the lost highway
What other road was I take - I'll find a way, it's alright
