A White Horse

A white horse in the night

That appears in the lights

Wandering on the roads of Clifden

Like a soul in the darkness

Un fantôme de jeunesse

Looking for the shade of a maiden

My life is on the road

Always leaving my friends

In mornings of sweet sorrow

But it's more than friends

That tomorrow I leave

It's my heart that I leave

C'est mon coeur que je laisse

It's my heart that I leave

In the heart of Connemara

I thought I could be free

Like a bird on the tree

But I tied bonds around me

Bonds of love are delight

When you're close to the light

They're so hard away from your star

Les départs c'est ma vie

Toujours je laisse mes amis

Dans des aubes de doux chagrin

C'est plus que des amis

Que je quitterai demain

C'est mon coeur que je laisse

It's my heart that I leave

C'est mon coeur que je laisse

Dans le cœur du Connemara

Raindrops fall the glass

But this shadow will pass

Tears and smiles beneath a rainbow

Et c'est comme un visage

Surgi du fond des âges

Retrouvé pour un amour très beau

My life is on the road

Always leaving my friends

In mornings of sweet sorrow

But it's more than friends

That tomorrow I leave

It's my heart that I leave

C'est mon coeur que je laisse

It's my heart that I leave

In the heart of Connemara

And I feel like a white

Horse lost in the night

Wandering on the roads of Clifden

Like a soul in the darkness

Un fantôme de jeunesse

Looking for the shade of a maiden
