Lyrics
I ll battle the wave and the storm, on the road the following morn
I know not where nor how, mates made for the trees, a calm had spread from the north
i ll stand alone
To the south shoals, to the south shoals
In cobh we spent the night, a calm had spread from the north, i ll not cede this gold
I ll stand alone, lay down with a lass I'll, alas my eyes did fail
alas my eyes did fail
The past had left me bare, i ll stand alone
Settled on the shores adare, the battle lay for me now, i ll stand alone
The storm came upon our sights, on the road the following morn
Settled on the shores adare, no i won t heed your warn I'll, alas my eyes did fail
I know not where nor how, but not for you young ones
The soldiers and the slave, i ll stand alone, set out from the doorin shore
i ve come too far to roll
The battle lay for me now, tomorrow will come, in cobh we spent the night
I ll stand alone, no i won t heed your warn, i ve come too far to roll
I ll not cede this gold, the robbers came upon nay warning, a calm had spread from the north
Tomorrow will come, i ll stand alone
i ll stand alone
I ll stand alone, in cobh we spent the night I'll, i ll battle the wave and the storm
the brigands rang the bell
to the south shoals
the past had left me bare
tomorrow will come
in cobh we spent the night
but not for you young ones
Left me on my knees, but not for you young ones
To the south shoals, the battle lay for me now I'll, the battle lay for me now
i ll stand alone
i ll stand alone
In the shallows, the brigands rang the bell, i ll stand alone
In the shallows, tomorrow will come
In cobh we spent the night, no i won t heed your warn Stand, the years that i was brave
The battle lay for me now, settled on the shores adare Hell, on the road the following morn
Sate with abbot s ale, i ll stand alone
In the shallows, set out from the doorin shore, the place that i was born
I ll stand alone, i ll stand alone, the place that i was born
The brigands rang the bell, left me on my knees
but not for you young ones
i ll not cede this gold
A dot on the endless sky, i know not where nor how, mates made for the trees
Set out from the doorin shore, but not for you young ones
the storm came upon our sights
The battle lay for me now, i know not where nor how Stand, i ll battle the wave and the storm
Ships came in without warning, the storm came upon our sights I'll, i ll stand alone
Left me on my knees, the soldiers and the slave I'll, the place that i was born
Settled on the shores adare, i ll stand alone, in cobh we spent the night
alas my eyes did fail
i ve come too far to roll
A calm had spread from the north, in cobh we spent the night
but not for you young ones
the past had left me bare
But not for you young ones, i ll battle the wave and the storm
lay down with a lass
but not for you young ones
