These rocky waters betray our tranquil scene,
If I were stronger I would take this all for thee,
The sniping wind plays havoc with your hair,
A finer princess could not be standing there.

Nowhere to run to, nowhere to hide
Galway

I hold your hand, a hand so true and fair,
A moment’s glance and your eyes but leave me bare.
An aisle of grandeur, I wish you’d lead me down,
A life alone, beneath your beauty I’d drown.

Nowhere to run to, nowhere to hide
Galway
Galway

The southerly blows its highland charms to thee,
I’m scarcely worthy & I know not what she sees in me.

Nowhere to run to, nowhere to hide
Who can you turn to? Turn and confide,
Galway
Galway
