Ancient Town

Moya Brennan

No place to hide dreams in crying faces

Nowhere to turn to in ancient town

No names to follow, some empty station

No one remembers this ancient town



No trees to shelter, this night for sleeping

No love to silence in ancient town

No voice confesses, the heart is broken

No time tomorrow in ancient town



[Gaelic]



No street to find you, just falling circles

No way to answer for ancient town

No road to guide me, the signs aren't rhyming

No way to trouble this ancient town



[Gaelic]



Is there one bright star?
