She Sings Her Songs With Open Eyes - Luka Bloom

She sings her songs with open eyes

Never holding in the pain

Of all the generations she sings about

She sings her songs with open eyes

Songs of distant voices through her they go

She stands and sings straight as a lighthouse

In the eye of the wind and rain

They bring her songs of Uisneach

And on they go again

In her voice everything turns to light

And her open eyes look across the night

She sings

Wear your troubles lightly

Root your life in the day

Respect yourself now

The love you’ve yet to know

Will guide your way

She sings her songs with open eyes

She sings her songs with open eyes

She sings her songs with open eyes

And all the bad days fly… fly away… fly away

She sings her songs with open eyes

She sings her songs with open eyes
