Ellen’s Song Songtext
von Johnny Logan

When the wind blows over the harbour
In a village by the sea
The years go back and once again
You′re standing here with me
I hear your voice as you call my name
I turn once more to see
The love light shining in your eyes
Where it will always be

Fare thee well, lovely Ellen
Till we meet once again
May the sun always shine upon your face
Fare thee well, lovely Ellen
Till this road meets it's end
Then once more I′ll reveal your warm embrace


Will you sing to me, the spinning wheel
Then stroll 'round Stephen's green
Walk once more down Kilkenny street
And places you have been
Will your laughter echo through all the years
And the heartache you have seen
Can we talk once more of better times
And share what′s more a dream

Fare thee well, lovely Ellen
Till we meet once again
May the sun always shine upon your face
Fare thee well, lovely Ellen
Till this road meets it′s end
Then once more I will feel your warm embrace
Fare thee well

Always torn between
The distance and two shores
I know how much that broke your heart
I hope you've found now
That piece you were looking for
In that light beyond the dark

I hear your voice as you call my name
I turn once more to see
The love light shining in your eyes
Where it will always be


Fare thee well, lovely Ellen
Till we meet once again
May the sun always shine upon your face
Fare thee well, lovely Ellen
Till this road meets it′s end
Then once more I will feel your warm embrace
Fare thee well, lovely Ellen
Till we meet once again
May the sun always shine upon your face
Fare thee well
Ellen
