[ti:The Old Ways] [ar:Loreena McKennitt] [al:The Visit] [offset:500] [00:00.00]Loreena McKennitt - The Old Ways [00:45.00] [04:57.38][04:31.82][04:06.56][01:33.48]The thundering waves are calling me home,home to you [05:09.70][04:44.46][04:19.00][01:46.00]The pounding sea is calling me home,home to you [05:21.37][04:55.38][04:29.40][01:56.42]  [01:58.25]On a dark new year's night [02:01.50]On the west coast of Clare [02:04.62]I heard your voice singing [02:11.41]Your eyes danced the song [02:14.23]Your hands played the tune [02:17.20]T'was a vision before me. [02:21.91] [02:23.33]We left the music behind and the dance carried on [02:30.24]As we stole away to the seashore [02:36.19]We smelt the brine, felt the wind in our hair [02:42.76]And with sadness you paused. [02:46.68]Suddenly I knew that you'd have to go [02:53.03]Your world was not mine, your eyes told me so [02:59.31]Yet it was there I felt the crossroads of time [03:05.13]And I wondered why. [03:08.95] [03:14.95]As we cast our gaze on the tumbling sea [03:21.54]A vision came o'er me [03:28.11]Of thundering hooves and beating wings [03:34.06]In th clouds above. [03:37.79]Turned to go I heard you call my name, [03:43.34]Like a bird in a cage spreading its wings to fly [03:50.27]"The old ways are lost," you sang as you flew [03:56.29]And I wondered why.
