The Pipes of Inishmore

Laura Powers

Compositor: Bob Halligan Jr. / Laura Powers

There over Galway bay
Like jewels in the sea
The isle of my early years
Is calling out to me

And just for a moment
I'm on your rocky shore
With my love beside me
And I can hear the pipes of Inishmore

Twas June and the yellow blooms
Covered all the hills
A piper on the highest cliff
Made our hearts stand still

And just for a moment
I'm on your rocky shore
With my love beside me
And I can hear the pipes of Inishmore

Calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling me home

When silence of winter comes
And all is gray and brown
I close my eyes and lift my head
To hear the sweetest sound

And just for a moment
I'm on your rocky shore
With my love beside me
And I can here the pipes of Inishmore

Just for a moment
My heart skips and soars
Forever remaining
Where I can hear the pipes of Inishmore
