Nickie Harte Kelly Single Olivia Chaney is no stranger to my collection,, her releases are always top-notch and unforgettable. So far, there have been two advance singles for her new release, which promises to be just as excellent as her previous solo works. Here, she sings of her sister’s family, who have moved to a remote island lighthouse. Simply beautiful.

lyrics

I could walk the water
Sail the Irish Sea
Travel ‘cross the border
With my love for thee

I don’t have a boat
I’m no messiah
Just the second-born
Tougher-skinned daughter

We’re always drawn to drowning
Shared childhood dreams
And I knew what you were thinking
Back when we loved the same things

Now rocks and the sands
At the cliff-edge of your land
Make for brighter days
But longer shadows cast

Lately I’ve been wondering
If these gales are at your door
Crashing up against
Old defensive walls

I can see the lighthouse
Is where you want to be
Beacon of danger
Ancient mystery

Your children will grow
To be hardier and free
Than we ever were
Or could ever be

All the lives we ever lived
And all the lives we’ll lead
May they keep the storms at bay
And hold us peacefully

Oh how your beauty
Is like a closèd shell
One that yearns to open
Reveal it’s treasure well

I will walk the water
Brave the Irish sea
Prove no man’s an island
With my love for thee
