Morning came and morning went All of my life, my loving was spent I looked out my window, too lazy to yawn It worries me finding my lady had gone Oh yes, suddenly be Golden sands swept in from the sea Kilted horseman in my dreams Ride their fiery frenzied steads Captured a mermaid who cried bitterly And drove her people back into the sea Oh yes, suddenly be Golden sands swept in from the sea The children of Darby O'Gill Play in the islands of icebergs at will The carnival opens, the children all play Singing their songs, da doo da doo da dey Oh yes, suddenly be Golden sands swept in from the sea I hear the masters, they're calling to me The wind carries the words straight over the sea They told me the stories of people at war When blood ran like water and hate spread like fire Oh yes, suddenly be Golden sands swept in from the sea
