Horslips Faster Than The Hound lyrics

I once told her
Where she could find her dream
And I still adore her
No matter how it seems

I saw our stars fall
Crash without a sound
Stars go crashing
Faster than the hound

I saw her sleeping
Alone beneath the sky
I caught her weeping
And I, alone knew why

I saw the ravens
Black without a sound
Ravens swirling
Faster than the hound


I travel Ireland in a day
You just nod your head, I'm on my way
I've got golden wings upon my feet
I seldom touch the ground, the only thing I'm not
Is faster than the hound

Now I watch her leaving
With the light of peoples dreams
Ignorant of rainbows
In the trees where we have been

But now there are ravens
High above the ground
Ravens growing closer
Faster than the hound
