Here On This Night

Here on this night, my life begins
Starting tonight my life sails on
Tonight the dream I fought for wins
And I'm with you until the dawn.

I went to sea when I was ten
I'd sail the world for months or more
I would be leagues away, but then
I'd dream of you back on the shore
Now that you'll always be in sight
My life begins here on this night.

Take my hand
And make a vow
We are one
Together now
Far from home
Yet home we share
Land and sea
And heart and air
You and I,
We're Ireland on this night.

I want to speak my heart out loud
We have to hide the things we feel
That I will love you till I die
How can we hide what's now so real?
If we can't say it to the crowd.

We'll just declare it to the sky
In front of every star in sight
We start our life here on this night.

Hand in hand
We'll keep our vow
We'll be one
Forever now
Far from home.

Yet home we share
Land and sea
And heart and air
You and I
We're Ireland on this night.

The sky grows dark
Our love grows bright
And I am yours
Here on this night.
