about

Inspired by Mr Lynch’s Holiday, by Catherine O’Flynn.

lyrics

Something struck
A familiar trust
Unwavering love
Old eyes to see
This broken life, clearly
Beneath the depths of all this,
Blue emotion that has crept onto
Your shore, and are you sure,
You’re OK, because I see you’re maybe
a little broken, yes
But it’s nothing that won’t mend
Come on old friend
Down to the ocean
Come on old friend
Follow me
But I didn’t see your fear
I didn’t see you begin
To disappear
Underneath the blue
But I reached for you
Down through the depths
And I found your hand
And now you safe and on dry land
My lad, my boy, young man
