Lyrics
Tied it all to the wishing tree
Saint Bridgit will you carry me home
Early morning and there’s miles ahead
Another moment and it will be gone again
Chorus
And it’s open seas and empty skies
Go on, spread your wings and fly away
Saint Brendan are you watching me
Guide the helm and lead us all home
I know she’s waiting for me
I’ve got a feeling that it won’t be long
Chorus
I say a prayer to Mother Mary
I say a prayer to the gods of wood and stone
I say a prayer to the stars above me
I say a prayer to the moon
Chorus
