It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas lyrics - Celtic Thunder

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Everywhere you go
Take a look in the Five and Ten
Glistening once again
With candy canes and silver lanes aglow

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Toys in every store
But the prettiest sight to see
Is the holly that will be
On your own front door

A pair of Hop-a-long boots and a pistol that shoots
Is the wish of Bonny and Ben
Dolls that will talk and go for a walk
Is the hope of Janice and Jenn
And mom and dad can hardly wait
For school to start again

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Everywhere you go
There's a tree in the Grand Hotel
One in the park as well
The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Soon the bells will start
And the thing that will make them ring
Is the Carol that you sing
Right within your heart

A pair of Hop-a-long boots and a pistol that shoots
Is the wish of Bonny and Ben
Dolls that will talk and go for a walk
Is the hope of Janice and Jenn
And mom and dad can hardly wait
For school to start again

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Soon the bells will start
And the thing that will make them ring
Is the Carol that you sing
Right within your heart, right within your heart

Winter Wonderland lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening?
In the land snow is glistening
A beautiful sight, oh, we're happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland

Gone away is the blue bird
Here to stay is a new bird
And he's singing a song as we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland

Well, in the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he is Parson Brown
He'll say are you married , we'll say, "No, man"
But you can do the job when you're in town

Later on, we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire to face unafraid
All the plans that we made
Walking in a winter wonderland

Well, in the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he's a circus clown
We'll have lots of fun with Mr. Snowman
Until the other kiddies knock him down

When it snows, ain't it thrilling
Though your noes gets a chilling
We'll frolic and play
The Eskimo way

Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland
Walking in a winter wonderland

Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Oh, the weather outside is frightful
The fire is so delightful
Since we've no place to go
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I've bought me some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

When we finally kiss goodnight
How I'll hate going out in the storm
But if you really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm

Oh, the fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we're still goodbyeing
As long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I bought me some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

When we finally kiss goodnight
How I'll hate going out in the storm
But if you really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm

Oh, the fire is slowing dying
An,d my dear, we're still goodbyeing
As long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

Last Christmas lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last Christmas I gave you my heart
And the very next day you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Once bitten, twice shy
I keep my distance but you still catch my eye
Tell me, baby, well, do you recognize me?
Well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me

Happy Christmas, I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying, "I love you", I meant it
But now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me, you'd fool me again

Last Christmas I gave you my heart
And the very next day you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special, woah

A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice
My God, I thought you were someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover when you tore me apart
Ooh, now, now that I found real love
You'll never fool me again

Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special, woah

Gave you my heart
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Oh, oh, oh, oh, last Christmas

Going Home For Christmas lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Going home for Christmas, can't wait to
Be on my way to see once more the folks
I've been missing is long and many a day,
Can't wait to get that old feeling being back
Where I belong, I've saved my fare and I'll
Soon be there, it's Christmas and I'm
Going home.

Going home for Christmas, and the welcome
That's waiting there I'll say goodbye to the lights
Of Broadway fairwell to old Time Square,
Thought my home is plain and simple it's
The place where I was born, and pleeker
Street just can't compete, it's Christmas
And I'm going home.

I've saved my fare, and I'll soon be there ,
It's Christmas and I'm going home.

Going home for Christmas, the way
That it used to be see the candle
Burning there in the window the fairy
Lights on the tree ,hear the laughter
Of the children, see the wonder in there
Eyes bring, on the snow and the mistletoe,
It's Christmas and I'm going home.

So bring on the snow, and the mistletoe,
It's Christmas and I'm going home.

I'm going home.

When You Wish Upon A Star lyrics - Celtic Thunder

When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you

If your heart is in your dream
No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star
As dreamers do

Fate is kind
She brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of
Your secret longing

Like a bolt out of the blue
Fate steps in and sees you through
When you wish upon a star
Your dreams come true

Fate is kind
She brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of
Your secret longing

When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you

May all your dreams come true

Our First Christmas Together lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Don't mind the snow that's falling
The carol singers calling
I'm just happy
To be spending our first Christmas
Together

And I'll be more than jolly
With the mistletoe and holly
Tonight as we are counting down to Christmas
Together
Just you and me

With those jingle bells ringing
As I'm holding you near
I'll be making a toast
May tonight be the most
Unforgettable night of the year

The sound of
Jingle bells and laughter
Will remind us ever after
Of how we spent that magical first Christmas
Together
Just you and me
Just you and me

With those jingle bells ringing
As I'm holding you near
I'll be making a toast
May tonight be the most
Unforgettable night of the year
The year

Cuddled up and cozy
The future's looking rosy
And I can see us spending every Christmas
Together
Just you and me
Just you and me
Just you and me
Just you and me

Christmas 1915 lyrics - Celtic Thunder

1915 on Christmas Day
On western front the guns all died away
And laying in the mud on bags of sand
We heard the German sing from no man's land
He tenor voice so pure and true
The words were strange but every note we knew
Soaring ore the the living dead and dammed
The German sang of peace from no man's land

They left their trenches and we left ours
Beneath tin hats the smiles bloomed like wild flowers
With photos cigarettes and bottles of wine
We bult a soldier's truce on the front line
Their singer was a lad of 21
We begged another song before the dawn
And sitting in the mud and blood and fear
He sang again the song all longed to hear

Silent night, no cannons roar
A king is born of peace for evermore
All's calm, all's bright
All brothers hand in hand
In 19 and 15 in no man's land

And in the morning sll guns boomed in the rain
And we killed them and they killed us again
At night they charged we fought them hand in hand
And i killed the boy that sang in no man's land

Silent night no cannons roar
A king is born of peace for evermore
All's calm, all's bright
All brothers hand in hand
And that young soldier sings
And the song of peace still rings
Though the captains and all the kings
Built no man's land
Sleep in heavenly peace

Baby, It's Cold Outside lyrics - Celtic Thunder


I really can't stay
Baby, it's cold outside
I've got to go away
Baby, it's cold outside

This evening has been
Been hoping that you'd drop in
So very nice
I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice

My mother will start to worry
Beautiful words you're humming
And father will be pacing the floor
Listen to the fireplace roar

So really I'd better scurry
Sweetheart, what's you're hurry?
Well, maybe just a half a drink more
Why don't you put some records on while I pour

The neighbors might think
But baby, it's bad out there
Say, what's in this drink?
No cabs to be had out there

I wish I knew how
Your eyes are like starlight now
To break the spell
I'll take your hat, your hairs looks swell

I ought to say no, no, no sir
Mind if I move a little closer?
At least I'm gonna say that I tried
What's the sense in hurting my pride?

I really can't stay
Baby, don't hold out
Oh, but it's cold outside

I simply must go
Baby it's cold outside
The answer is no
But baby it's cold out there

The welcome has been
How lucky that you dropped in
So nice and warm
Look out the window at that storm

My sister will be suspicious
Girl, your lips look delicious
My brother will be there at the door
Like waves upon a tropical shore

My maiden aunt's mind is vicious
Oh, baby, you're so delicious
Well, maybe just a cigarette more
Never such a blizzard before

I got to get home
Oh baby, you'll freeze out there
Say, lend me a coat
It's up to your knees out there

You've really been grand
I'm thrilled when you touch my hand
Why don't you see?
How can you do this thing to me?

There's bound to be talk tomorrow
Making my lifelong sorrow
At least there will be plenty implied
If you caught pneumonia and died

I really can't stay
Get over that hold out
Ah, but it's cold outside
Baby, it's cold outside

Come on, stay a little longer
Okay

I really can't stay
Baby, it's cold outside
I've got to go away

Ave Maria lyrics - Celtic Thunder



Ave Maria
Gratia plena
Dominus tecum

Benedicta tu in mulieribus
Et benedictus fructus ventris
Tui, Jesus
Sancta Maria

Mater Dei
Ora pro nobis peccatoribus
Nunc et in hora mortis nostrae
Amen

All I Want For Christmas Is You lyrics - Celtic Thunder

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree

I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
You make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
Don't care about presents
Underneath the Christmas tree

I don't need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day

And I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
You make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you, you, baby, woah

Oh, I won't ask for much this Christmas
I don't even wish for snow
I'm just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe

I won't make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeer click

And I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do?
All I want for Christmas is you, you, baby, woah

All the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children's
Laughter fills the air

And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need
Won't you please bring my baby to me

Oh, I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just just one thing I need
I just want to see baby
Standing right outside my door

And I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
You make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you, you, baby, woah
You, all I want for Christmas is you

I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday lyrics - Celtic Thunder

When the snowman brings the snow
Well, he just might like to know
He's put a great big smile on somebody's face

And if you jump into your bed
Quickly cover up your head
Don't you lock your door
You know the sweet Santa Claus is on his way

Well, I wish it could be Christmas every day
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas every day
So let the bells ring out for Christmas

When we're skating in the park
If the storm clouds paint it dark
Then your rosy cheeks gonna light my merry way

Now the frosticals appeared
And they've frozen up my ear
So we'll lie by the fire
'Til the sleep simply melts them all away

Well, I wish it could be Christmas every day
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas every day
So let the bells ring out for Christmas
(Wish it could be Christmas, oh, I wish it could be Christmas)

Well, I wish it could be Christmas every day
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas every day
So let the bells ring out for Christmas

Well, I wish it could be Christmas every day
When the kids start singing and the band begins to play, woah, ooh
Oh, I wish it could be Christmas every day
So let the bells ring out for Christmas
So let the bells ring out for Christmas

The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year / We Wish You A Merry Christmas lyrics - celtic thunder

It’s the most wonderful time of the year
With the kids jingle-belling
And everyone telling you, “Be of good cheer”
It’s the most wonderful time of the year

It’s the hap-happiest season of all
With those holiday greetings and gay happy meetings
When friends come to call
It’s the hap-happiest season of all

There’ll be parties for hosting
Marshmallows for toasting
And caroling out in the snow
There’ll be scary ghost stories
And tales of the glories
Of Christmases long, long ago

It’s the most wonderful time of the year
There’ll be much mistletoeing
And hearts will be glowing
When loved ones are near
It’s the most wonderful time of the year

There’ll be parties for hosting
Marshmallows for toasting
And caroling out in the snow
There’ll be scary ghost stories
And tales of the glories
Of Christmases long, long ago
Long ago

It’s the most wonderful time of the year
There’ll be much mistletoeing
And hearts will be glowing
When loved ones are near
It’s the most wonderful time,
It’s the most wonderful time,
It’s the most wonderful time of the year

Of the year

We wish you a Merry Christmas,
We wish you a Merry Christmas,
We wish you a Merry Christmas,
And a happy New Year.

Good tidings we bring
To you and your King
Good tidings for Christmas
And a happy New Year.

Oh, bring us some figgy pudding,
Oh, bring us some figgy pudding,
Oh, bring us some figgy pudding,
And a cup of good cheer.

Good tidings we bring
To you and your King
Good tidings for Christmas
And a happy New Year.

We wish you a Merry Christmas,
We wish you a Merry Christmas,
We wish you a Merry Christmas,
And a happy New Year.

Home lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Another summer day
Is come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home
Mmmmmmmm

Maybe surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
Just wanna go home
I miss you, you know

And I've been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
'I'm fine baby, how are you?'
Well I would send them but I know that it's just not enough
My words were cold and flat
And you deserve more than that

Another airplane
Another sunny place
I'm lucky I know
But I wanna go home
I've got to go home

Let me go home
I'm just too far from where you are
I wanna come home

And it feel just like I'm living someone else's life
It's like I just stepped outside
When everything was going right
And I know just why you could not
Come along with me
Cause this was not your dream
But you always believed in me

Another winter day has come
And gone away
And even Paris and Rome
I wanna go home
Let me go home

And I'm surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel alone
Let go home
I miss you, you know

Let me go home
I'm just too far from where you are
I wanna come home
Let me go home
It'll all be all right
I'll be home tonight
I'm coming back home

Life With You lyrics - Celtic Thunder

When I was a younger man
When I was a silly boy
I didn't need a thing,
I was strong as anything,
I viewed solitude as a joy

But since I met you I'm distraught
You wandered in and now I'm caught
I never thought I would see
Someone so truly good
Some one who's so everything I'm not

I want to spend my life with you
Don't want to live all alone
I can't conceive of the years left in me
Without you in our home

But what if, what if, what if what
If it's not perfect then it's not
But every care I'll take
Nothing I won't forsake
To dwell beside what you've got

Every time I think about you
I think I can't live with you
I'll tell you something
I am nothing without you

I want to spend my life with you
Don't want to live all alone
I can't conceive of the years left in me
Without you in our home

I want to spend my life with you
Don't want to live all alone
I can't conceive of the years left in me

Without you in our home [2x]

Hallelujah lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Now I've heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?
It goes like this
The fourth, the fifth
The minor fall, the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Maybe there's a God above
But all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who out drew ya
It's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not someone who has seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Just Like Jesse James lyrics - Celtic Thunder

You're strutting through the town like you're slinging a gun
Just a small-town dude with a big city attitude
Honey are you looking for some trouble tonight?
Well, alright

You think you're so bad drive the women folk wild
Shoot 'em all down with a flash of your pearly smile
Honey, but you met your match tonight
Oh, that's right

You think you'll knock me off my feet 'til I'm flat on the floor
'Til my heart is crying Indian and I'm begging for more
So come on baby
Come on baby
Come on baby show me what that loaded gun is for

If you can give it
I can take it
Cause if this heart is gonna break, its gonna take a lot to break it
I know tonight somebody is gonna win the fight

So if you're so tough
Come on and prove it
Your heart is down for the count and you know you're gonna lose it
Tonight you're gonna go down in flames
Just like Jesse James

You break the laws of love in the name of desire
Take ten steps back
Cause I'm ready baby
Aim and fire
Baby, there's nowhere you're gonna run tonight
Oh, that's right

Well, you've had your way with love, but its the end of the day
Now a team of wild horses couldn't drag your heart away

So come on baby
Come on baby
Come on baby
Come on

If you can give it
I can take it
Cause if this heart is gonna break, its gonna take a lot to break it
I know tonight somebody is gonna win the fight

So if you're so tough
Come on and prove it
Your heart is down for the count and you know you're gonna lose it
Tonight you're gonna go down in flames
Just like Jesse James
Tonight you're gonna go down in flames
Just like Jesse James

Hard For Me To Say I'm Sorry lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Everybody needs a little time away
I heard her say
From each other.
Even lovers need a holiday
Far away from each other.

Hold me now
It's hard for me to say I'm sorry.
I just want you to stay.
After all that we've been through
I will make it up to you
I promise to.
After all that's been said and done
You're just a part of me I can't let go.

I couldn't stand being kept away
Not for a day
From your body.
Wouldn't want to be swept away
Far away
From the one that i love.

Hold me now
Its hard for me to say I'm sorry.
I just want you know.

Hold me now
I really want to tell you I'm sorry.
I could never let you go.
After all that weve been through
I will make it up to you.
I promise to.
After all that's been said and done
You're just a part of me I can't let go.

After all that we've been through
I will make it up to you.
I promise to.
After all that's been said and done
You're just a part of me I can't let go.

After all that we've been through
I will make it up to you
I peromise to.
I do.

Bad Bad Leroy Brown lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Well the South side of Chicago
Is the baddest part of town
And if you go down there
You better just beware
Of a man named Leroy Brown

Now Leroy more than trouble
You see he stand 'bout six foot four
All the downtown ladies call him Treetop Lover
All the men just call him Sir

[Chorus:]
And it's bad, bad Leroy Brown
The baddest man in the whole damned town
Badder than old King Kong
And meaner than a junkyard dog

Now Leroy he a gambler
And he like his fancy clothes
And he like to wave his diamond rings
In front of everybody's nose
He got a custom Continental
He got an Eldorado too
He got a 32 gun in his pocket for fun
He got a razor in his shoe

[Repeat Chorus]

Now Friday 'bout a week ago
Leroy shootin' dice
And at the edge of the bar
Sat a girl named Doris
And oo that girl looked nice
Well he cast his eyes upon her
And the trouble soon began
Cause Leroy Brown learned a lesson
Bout messin' with the wife of a jealous man

[Repeat Chorus]

Well the two men took to fighting
And when they pulled them off the floor
Leroy looked like a jigsaw puzzle
With a couple of pieces gone

[Repeat Chorus]

Doo Wacka Doo lyrics - Celtic Thunder

I've been playing some old records
That I found in Grandpa's trunk
Beside a wind-up gramophone
Beneath a pile of junk
And in that dusty attic
I enjoyed a music show
Listening to the melodies
Of eighty years ago

Doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo
The band would play
Doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo
They'd danced the night away

I long for all the magic
And the days of cabaret
Bring back those good old melodies of yesterday
Bring back those good old melodies of yesterday

In my youth, I studied music
And it taught me how to sing
"Bella signora"
They took me to the opera
And I loved that kind of thing
But then I'd listen to the stories
That my grandpa used to tell
About the Roaring Twenties
And the songs he knew so well

Doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo
The band would play
Doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo
They'd danced the night away

I long for all the magic
And the days of cabaret
Bring back those good old melodies of yesterday
Bring back those good old melodies of yesterday

Then he'd talk about the flappers
And the way they used to dance
About the bootleg liquor
And the ballrooms of romance
Then, later, in the movies
There's dancing everywhere
My grandpa said he dreamed
That he could move like Fred Astaire

Oh, doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo
The band would play
Doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo wacka doo
They'd danced the night away

I long for all the magic
And the days of cabaret
Bring back those good old melodies of yesterday
Bring back those good old melodies of yesterday

Amazing Grace lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see

Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see

Though many dangers, toils, and snares
I have already come
Twas grace that brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see
Was blind but now I see

Hello Again lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Hello again, hello
Just called to say hello
I couldn't sleep at all tonight
I know it's late
But I couldn't wait

Hello, my friend, hello
Just called to let you know
I think about you every night
When I'm here alone
And you're there at home
Hello

Maybe it's been crazy
Maybe I'm to blame
But I put my heart above my head
We've been through it all and you love me just the same
When you're not there
I just need to hear

Hello, my friend, hello
It's good to need you so
It's good to love you like I do
And to feel this way
When I hear you say
Hello

Hello, my friends, hello
Just called to let you know
I think about you every night
And I know it's late
But I couldn't wait
Hello

When You Wish Upon A Star lyrics - Celtic Thunder

When you wish upon a star

No request is too extreme

The sweet fulfillment of
Your secret longing

Like a bolt out of the blue
Fate steps in and sees you through
When you wish upon a star

The sweet fulfillment of
Your secret longing

When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you

May all your dreams come true

Standing On The Corner lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Standing on a corner watching all the girls go by
Standing on a corner watching all the girls go by
Brother you don't know a nicer occupation
Matter of fact, neither do I
Than standing on a corner watching all the girls
Watching all the girls, watching all the girls go by

I'm the cat that got the cream
Haven't got a girl but I can dream
Haven't got a girl but I can wish
So I'll take me down to Main street
And that's where I select my imaginary dish

Standing on a corner watching all the girls go by
Standing on a corner giving all the girls the eye
Brother if you've got a rich imagination
Give it a whirl, give it a try
Try standing on a corner watching all the girls
Watching all the girls, watching all the girls go by

I'm the cat that got the cream
Haven't got a girl but I can dream
Haven't got a girl but I can wish
So I'll take me down to Main street
And that's where I select my imaginary dish

Brother you can't go to jail for what you're thinking
Or for that woo look in your eye
Standing on the corner watching all the girls
Watching all the girls, watching all the girls go by

Surfer Medley lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Two girls for every boy

I bought a pretty cool wagon and they call it a Woodie
(Surf City, here we come)
You know it ain't very cherry, it's an oldie but a goody
(Surf City, here we come)
Well it ain't got a backseat or a rear window
but it still gets me where I want to go

And we're goin' to Surf City 'cause it's two to one
You know we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun
Yeah, we're goin' to Surf City 'cause it's two to one
You know we're goin' to Surf City, gonna have some fun now
Two girls for every boy
Two girls for every-

Well, she got her daddy's car
And she cruises through the hamburger stand now
(Hamburger stand now, the hamburger stand)
Seems she forgot all about
The library like she told her old man now
(Told her old man now, she told her old man)
And with the radio blasting
Goes cruising just as fast as she can now
(Fast as she can now, as fast as she can)
And she'll have fun, fun, fun 'till her daddy takes the T-Bird away
And she'll have fun, fun, fun 'till her daddy takes the T-Bird away

If everybody had an ocean
Across the U. S. of A.
Then everybody'd be surfin'
Like Californ-i-a
You'd see 'em wearing their baggies
Huarache sandals too
A bushy, bushy blond hairdo
A-surfin' U.S.A.

You'd catch 'em surfin' at Del Mar
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
Ventura County line
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
Santa Cruz and Trestles
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
Australia's Narrabeen
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
All over Manhattan
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
And down Deheny way
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
Everybody gone surfin'
Surfin' U.S.A.

(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
(Inside, outside, U.S.A.)
We'll all be gone for the summer
We're on safari to stay
Tell the boys we're surfin'
Surfin' U.S.A.

Sway lyrics - Celtics


When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me; make me sway
like a lazy ocean hogs the shore
Hold me close; sway me more

Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me; sway with ease
When we dance, you have a way with me
Stay with me; sway with me

Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes with see only you
Only you have the magic technique
When we sway I go weak

I can hear the sound of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth; sway me now

Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes with see only you
Only you have the magic technique
When we sway I go weak

Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me; sway with ease
When we dance, you have a way with me
Stay with me; sway with me

When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me; make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close; sway me more

Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close; sway me more

Hold me close; sway me more
Sway me now

(Everything I Do) I Do It For You lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Look into my eyes
You will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart
Search your soul
When you find me there, you'll search no more

Don't tell me it's not worth trying for
Can't tell me it's not worth dying for
You know it's true
Everything I do
I do it for you

Look into your heart
You will find
There's nothing there to hide
Take me as I am
Take my life
I will give it all, I would sacrifice

Don't tell me it's not worth fighting for
I can't help it, there's nothing I want more
You know it's true
Everything I do
I do it for you

There's no love
Like your love
And no other
Could give more love
There's no where
Unless you're there
All the time
All the way

you can't tell me it's not worth trying for
I can't help it, there's nothing I want more
Yeah I will fight for you
I'd lie for you
Walk the wire for you
Yeah I'd die for you

You know it's true
Everything I do
I do it for you
I do it for you

I Still Haven't Found What I Am Looking For lyrics - Celtic Thunder

I have climbed highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you

I have run, I have called
I have scaled these city walls, these city walls
Only to be with you
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing fingertips burn like a fire
This burning desire

I have spoken tongue of angles
I have held the hand of the devil
It's warm in the night, it's warm as a stone
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
But yes I'm still running

You broke the bonds
And you loosed the chains
Carried the cross
Of my shame
Oh my shame
You know I believe it


But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

The Homes Of Donegal lyrics Celtic Thunder

I just dropped in to see you all
I'll only stay awhile
I want to hear how you're getting on
I want to see you smile
I'm happy to be back again
And greet you big and small
For there's no place else on this earth quite like
The homes of Donegal

I long to see your smiling children
Standing by the door
The kettle boiling on the hearth
As I walked up the floor
And then to see a waiting for me
Travellers one and all
For your heart's alive in your mountain size
In the homes of Donegal

I like to lie, lie along with you
While away at night
With fairy lore and tales of yore
Beside the surf fire bright
And then to see laid out for me
A shake-down by the wall
For there's rest for weary wanderers
In the homes of Donegal

Donegal, queen of all
Donegal, queen of all

Working Man lyrics - Celtic Thunder

It's a working man I am
And I've been down underground
And I swear to God
If I ever see the sun

Oh for any length of time
I can hold it in my mind
I never again
Will go down underground

At the age of sixteen years
Oh he quarrels with his peers
He vowed they'd never
See another one

In the dark recess of the mine
Where you age before your time
And the coal dust lies heavy
On your lungs

It's a working man I am
And I've been down underground
And I swear to God
If I ever see the sun

Oh for any length of time
I can hold it in my mind
I never again
Will go down underground

At the age of sixty four
He will greet you at the door
And he will gently lead you
By the arm

Through the dark recess of the mine
He will take you back in time
And he'll tell you of
The hardships that were had

It's a working man I am
And I've been down underground
And I swear to God
If I ever see the sun

Oh for any length of time
I can hold it in my mind
I never again will go down underground

I never again will go down underground

Every Breath You Take lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I'll be watching you

Every single day
Every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay
I'll be watching you

Oh, can't you see
You belong to me
And my poor heart aches
Every step you take

Every move you make
Every vibe you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you

Since you've gone
I've been lost
Without a trace
Dream at night

I can only see your face
Look around,but
It's you I can't replace

Feel so cold
But, I long
For your embrace
Keep crying, baby, baby

Oh can't you see
You belong to me
And my poor heart aches
Every breath you take

Every move you make
Every vibe you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you
(Tonight)
I'll be watching you
(Tonight)
I'll be watching you
(Tonight)
I'll be watching you
(Tonight)
I'll be watching you
(Tonight)
I'll be watching you

Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Tra la la la la la la la
Happy birthday sweet sixteen
Tra la la la la la la la
Happy birthday sweet sixteen
Tonight's the night,
I've waited for
Because you're not a baby any more
You've turned into the prettiest girl I've ever seen
Happy birthday sweet sixteen
What happened to that funny face?
My Little tomboy now wears satin and lace
I can't believe my eyes
You're just a teenage dream
Happy birthday sweet sixteen
When you were only six, I was your big brother
Then when you were ten we didn't like each other
When you were thirteen, you were my funny valentine
But since you've grown up the future is sown up
From now on you're gonna be mine
So, if I should smile with sweet surprise
It's just that you've grown up before my very eyes
You've turned into the prettiest girl I've ever seen
Happy birthday sweet sixteen

Tra la la la la la la la
Happy birthday sweet sixteen

Tra la la la la la la la

Happy birthday sweet sixteen
if I should smile with sweet surprise
It's just that you've grown up before my very eyes
You've turned into the prettiest girl I've ever seen
Happy birthday sweet sixteen
Tra la la la la la la la
Happy birthday sweet sixteen
Tra la la la la la la la
Happy birthday sweet sixteen
Tra la la la la la la la
Happy birthday sweet sixteen

Steal Away lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Steal away, let's steal away,
No reason left to stay.
For me and you,
Let's start anew,
And darlin' steal away.

Ooooh, ooooh

Let's steal away and chase our dream,
And hope they never find us.
The deary days, the empty nights,
We'll leave them all behind us.

Ooooh, aaaaah

Steal away, let's steal away
No reason left to stay.
For me and you,
Let's start anew,
And darlin' steal away.

Oooooh.

We'll leave with just our memories,
And make a new beginning.
We have to choose,
To win or lose,
And it's time we started winning.

Mmmmm, aaaaah

Steal away, let's steal away,
No reason left to stay.
For me and you,
Let's start anew,
And darlin' steal away.
Steal away, let's steal away,
No reason left to stay.
For me and you,
Let's start anew,
And darlin' steal away.

Because We Believe lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Guarda fuori e’gia’mattina
Questo e’un giorno che ricorderai
Alzati in fretta e vai
C’e chi crede in te
Non ti arrendere

Once in every life
There comes a time
We walk out all alone
And into the light
The moment won’t last but then,
We remember it again
When we close our eyes.

Like stars across the sky
E per a vincere
Tu dovrai vincere
We were born to shine
All of us here because we believe

Guarda avanti e non voltarti mai
Accarezza con i sogni tuoi
Le tue speranze e poi
Verso il giorno che verra
C’e un traguardo la

Like stars across the sky
E per a vincere
Tu dovrai vincere
We were born to shine
All of us here because we believe

Non arrenderti
Qualcuno e con te

Like stars across the sky
We were born to shine
E per a vincere
Dovrai vincere
E allora vincerai

Wichita Lineman lyrics - Celtic Thunder

I am a lineman for the county.
And I drive the main road,
Lookin' in the sun for another overload.

I hear you singing in the wire.
I can hear you thru the whine.
And the Wichita Lineman
is still on the line.

I know I need a small vacation.
But it don't look like rain.
And if it snows that stretch down south
won't ever stand the strain.

And I need you more than want you.
And I want you for all time.
And the Wichita Lineman
is still on the line.
And I need you more than want you.
And I want you for all time.
And the Wichita Lineman
is still on the line.
is still on the line.
is still on the line.
is still on the line.

Breaking Up Is Hard To Do lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Don't take your love away from me
Don't you leave my heart in misery
If you go then I'll be blue
'Cause breaking up his hard to do

Remember when you held me tight
And you kissed me all through the night
Think of all that we've been through
Breaking Up Is Hard To Do

They say that breaking up is hard to do
Now I know, I know that it's true
Don't say that this is the end
Instead of breaking up I wish that we were making up again

I beg of you, don't say goodbye
Can't we give our love another try
Come on baby, let's start a new
'Cause breaking up is hard to do

The Green Fields Of France lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Well how do you do, young Willy McBride,
Do you mind if I sit here down by your graveside,
And rest for a while 'neath the warm summer sun,
I've been walking all day and I'm nearly done.

I see by your gravestone you were only 19,
You joined the great fallin' in 1916.
Well I hope you died quick, and I hope you died clean.
Willy McBride, was it slow and obscene?

[Chorus:]
Did they beat the drums slowly,
Did they play the fife lowly?
Did they sound a death march as they lowered you down?
Did the band play the last post and chorus?
Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest?

Did you leave a wife or a sweetheart behind,
In some faithful heart, is your memory in shrine?
And though you died back in 1916,
In that faithful heart, you're forever 19.

Or are you a stranger without even a name,
Enclosed forever behind a glass pane.
In an old photograph, torn and battered and stained,
And faded to yellow in a brown yellow frame.

[Chorus]

Now Willy McBride, I can't help wondering why
Do those who lie here know why they died.
Did they really believe when they answered the cause,
Did they really believe that this war would end wars?

But the sorrow, the sufferin', the glory, the pain
The killing and dying were all done in vain.
But, Willy McBride, it all happened again, and again, and again, and again, and again.

[Chorus]

Did the pipes play the flowers of the forest?

Midnight Well lyrics- Celtic Thunder

In the town, the people stay away
From the midnight well
For it's dark and evil, so they say
The midnight well

They'll tell you a tale of a lovely young maid
The fairest that they'd ever known
What a beauty, they say
But she went her own way
On that night, she set out on her own

For they say, she had a rendez-vous
At the midnight well
With a gypsy man she barely knew
At the midnight well

Nobody knew where he came from
But they remember the fire in his eyes
His earring of gold
And his hair black as coal
And a look that could just hypnotize

When he said
Come away, come away with me
Come here and lay with me
Come away out of the light
Come away, come away
Come and ride with me into the night

Never more, they never saw her face
At the midnight well
She was gone, and never left a trace
At the midnight well

They say when the summer nights come to an end
The harvest moon glows in the sky
A black horse will appear and a sound you will hear
As the ghost of a gypsy flies by

And he says
Come away, come away with me
Come here and lay with me
Come away out of the light
Come away, come away
Come and ride with me into the night

Come away, come away with me
Come here and lay with me
Come away out of the light
Come away, come away
Come and ride with me into the night

Come away, come away with me
Come here and lay with me
Come away out of the light
Come away, come away
Come and ride with me into the night

I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) lyrics - Celtic Thunder

When I wake up, well I know I'm gonna be,

You Raise Me Up lyrics - Celtic Thunder

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up... To more than I can be.

Take Me Home lyrics - Celtic Thunder



[Ryan]
I sit here thinking
As the sun is sinking
Over the mountain
And the dry, dusty ground

[Damian]
As the night is falling
I start recalling
The nights
In my own town

[Keith]
I see the faces
In familiar places
I hear the music
That they played way back then

[Paul]
My heart rejoices
As I hear the voices
Calling me
Home again

[Chorus - All]
Home
Oh take me home
Oh to the people
I left behind
Oh to the love
I know I'll find
Oooh take me home

[George]
As the sky is burning
My mind is turning
To the cold winter evenings
By my own fire side

[All]
So far away now
But any day now
I'll sail
On the morning tide

[Chorus - All]
Home
Oh take me home
Oh to the people
I left behind
Oh to the love
I know I'll find
Oooh take me home

[Keith]
Take me home
Far across the sea
[All]
Home is where I long to be

[Chorus - All x2]
Home
(Da da da da)
Oh take me home
(Da da da da)
Oh to the people
(Da da da da da)
I left behind
(Da da da)
Oh to the love
(Da da da da)
I know I'll find
(Da da da da)
Oooh take me home

Ride On lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Sure you ride the finest horse I've ever seen
Standing 16' one or two, with eyes wild and green
You ride the horse so well, hands light to the touch
I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to

Ride on, see you,
I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to

When you ride into the night, without a trace behind
Run you claw along my gut, one last time
I turn to face an empty space, where you used to lie
I look for the spark that lights the night
Through a teardrop in your eye

Ride on, see you, I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to

Ride on, see you, I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to
Ride on, see you, I could never go with you no
matter how I wanted to

I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to
I could never go with you no matter how I wanted to

A Bird Without Wings lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Like a bird without wings
That longs to be flying,
Like a motherless child
Left lonely and crying.
Like a song without words,
Like a world without music,
I wouldn't know what to do
I'd be lost without you
Watchin' over me.

[George sings harmonies here]

I get so lonely, when you're away
I count every moment, I wait every day,
Until you're home again
And hug me so tight
That's when I know
Everything is alright.

Like a bird without wings
That longs to be flying,
Like a motherless child
Left lonely and crying.
Like a song without words
Like a world without music,
I wouldn't know what to do
I'd be lost without you
Watchin' over me.

[George sings harmonies here]

You're my guardian angel
My light and my guide
Your hand on my shoulder
And you by my side.
You make everything beautiful,
You make me complete.
Everything in my world
I lay at your feet..

Like a church with no steeple,
Where a bell never rings.
In a town without people,
Where no voice in the choir ever sings.
If a boat on the ocean
Would be lost with no sail,
Then without your devotion
Surely all that I dreamed of would fail.

[George doing harmonies]

Like a song without words
Like a world without music,
I wouldn't know what to do
I'd be lost without you
Watchin' over me

I wouldn't know what to do
I'd be lost without you
Watchin' over me

My Boy lyrics - Celtic Thunder

You're sleeping son, I know
But, really, this can't wait
I wanted to explain
Before it gets too late
For your mother and me
Love has finally died
This is no happy home
But God knows how I've tried

Because you're all I have, my boy
You are my life, my pride, my joy
And if I stay, I stay because of you, my boy

I know, it's hard to understand
Why did we ever start?
We're more like strangers now
Each acting out a part
I have laughed, I have cried
I have lost every game
I've taken all I can take
But I'll stay just the same

Because you're all I have, my boy
You are my life, my pride, my joy
And if I stay, I stay because of you, my boy

Sleep on, you haven't heard a word
Perhaps it's just as well
Why spoil your little dreams
Why put you through that hell
Life is no fairytale
As one day you will know
But now you're just a child
I'll stay here and watch you grow

Because you're all I have, my boy
You are my life, my pride, my joy
And if I stay, I stay because of you, my boy

Because you're all I have, my boy
You are my life, my pride, my joy
And if I stay, I stay because of you, my boy
My Boy

Raggle Taggle Gypsy lyrics - Celtic Thunder

There were three old gypsies came to our hall door
They came brave and boldly-o
One sang high and the other sang low
And the Lady sang the raggle taggle gypsy-o

It was upstairs and downstairs the lady went
Put on her suit of leather-o
T'was a cry all around the door
She's away wi' the raggle taggle gypsy-o

It was late at night when the lord came in
Enquiring for his lady-o
The servant girl replied to her lord
She's away wi' the raggle taggle gypsy-o

Oh then saddle for me and my milk white steed
My big horse is not speedy-o
I will ride and I'll seek my bride
She's away wi' the raggle taggle gypsy-o

Then he rode east and he rode west
He rode north and south also
But when he went to the open fields
It was there that he spied his lady-o

Love Thee Dearest lyrics - Celtic Thunder

Love thee dearest, love thee
Yes, by yonder star I swear
Which through tears above thee
Shines so sadly fair
Thou, too, oft dimmed
With tears like him
Like him my truth will shine
And love thee, dearest, love thee
Yes - till death I'm thine.

Dormi amore dormi
Porta il fuore dove vuoi
Vola verso I sogni
Bella come sei
Tue sei per me la stella she
Per sempre brillera
E dormi amore dormi
E gia notte ormai

Dimmi amore dimmi
Che non te ne andrai mai piu
Quante notti insonni
Se mi manchi tu
Accanto a me le vuvole
Non torneranno mai
E sogna tutti I sogni
Che l'amore da
L'amore da
