She Was The Prize

A cute song from Gaelic Storm which my classmates from S6E will most probably identify with dearly, here to distract you while I write my Bintan Astronomy Camp Entry.

I've lived a long life, and now I'm looking back
It's the end of the road, the last stop on the track
And I smile as think of my true love once more...
The light of my life, the one I adore!

She...she was the prize!

The prettiest girl with the loveliest eyes
She...she was the prize!
Shiny black hair and those lovely... those lovely brown eyes

Well I met her one night at the Harvest Fair dance
I longed for a whisper, I hoped for a glance
Then she turned and she smiled and I melted away
And I knew I'd be with her 'til my dying day

We lay on the cliffs and we walked hand in hand
We threw stones in the waves, we drew hearts in the sand
When the warning clouds rolled in and blackened the sun
And when they roled out, my light, she was gone

I've shed all my tears and I've said my good-byes

Now I'll lay myself down where my pretty girl lies
When I awake I'll be on earth no more
I'll be dancing a jig with the girl I adore!

She...she was the prize!
The prettiest girl with the loveliest eyes
She...she was the prize!
Shiny black hair and those lovely... those lovely brown eyes
