An emigre, a long way from his home dreams of the good times, people an places he left behind on the Emerald Isle. We gave this traditional song a bit of a "lift". |

| Lyrics: |
Last night as I lay dreaming of pleasant days gone by
Me mind been bent on rambling to Ireland I did fly
I stepped on board a vision and following with a will
Till next I came to anchor at the cross near Spancil Hill.
To amuse a passing fancy I lay down on the ground.
And all my school companions they shortly gathered round.
When we were home returning we danced with bright goodwill
To Martin Moynahans music at the cross at Spancil Hill.
I paid a flying visit to my first and only love.
She's as fair as any lily and gentle as a dove
She threw her arms around me crying "Johnny I love you still",
she was a farmer's daughter, the pride of Spancil Hill.
Well I dreamt I hugged and kissed her as in the days of yore.
She said "Johnny you're only joking as many the time before."
The cock crew in the morn he crew both loud and shrill
and I awoke in California many miles from Spancil Hill.

That's the music I like, and I discover a lot of correspondence to our own music. Transparent professional sound, sounding naturally and interesting. There's never a dull moment...
I hope to hear more of you, Rolf of "CoveredClouds" =;)
