Chasing Shadows
[Verse] Down in the hollow where the wind never rests We climbed through the brambles Our courage to test With lanterns a-swingin' and whispers of cheer Hunting the echoes of those who draw near [Verse 2] Old Patty O'Shea with his stories untold Spoke of the spirits who wander the old Said “Catch ’em ye can With a net woven tight In the dead of the dusk Or the heart of the night.” [Chorus] We’re chasing shadows in the moon’s silver glow With nets made of dreams and hearts all aglow The whispers of ages The memories untold We’re catching the ghosts of legends grown old [Verse 3] The river called softly Like voices of yore We followed its whispers to a shrouded moor And there in the clearing where the mist kissed the ground The spirits were waiting No longer unbound [Verse 4] Through ancient oaks Where the wild roses climb We sang them a song from an olden time The ghosts then they gathered In silence they stayed Listening to tales of a world that once played [Chorus] We’re chasing shadows in the moon’s silver glow With nets made of dreams and hearts all aglow The whispers of ages The memories untold We’re catching the ghosts of legends grown old
