Galway Shawl/Strange Glue
Cerys Matthews

At Orenmore, in the County Galway,nOne pleasant evening in the month of MaynI spied a damsel, she was young and handsomenHer beauty fairly took my breath away.nnShe wore no jewels, nor costly diamonds,nNo paint or powder, no, none at all.nBut she wore a bonnet with a ribbon on itnAnd round her shoulder was a Galway Shawl.nnIt was strange glue that held us togethernWhile we both came apart at the seamsnShe said, your place or minenWhile we've still got the timenSo I played along with her schemesnnBut I dont have the right to be with you tonightnSo please leave me alone with no saviour in sightnI will sleep safe and sound with nobody around mennWhen faced with my demons;nI clothe them and feed themnAnd I smile, Yes I smilenAs they're taking me overnnAnd if I cannot sleepnFor the secrets I keepnIt's a price I'm willing to meet.nnFor the end of the night never comes too quickly for mennAnd I don't have the right to be with you tonightnSo please leave me alone with no SaviornI will sleep safe and sound with nobody around mennWhen faced with my demonsnI clothe them and feed themnAnd I smile Yes I smilenAs they're taking me overnnAnd if I cannot sleepnFor the secrets I keepnIt's the price I'm willing to seeknnFor the end of the night never comes too quickly for menAnd I smilenFor the end of the night never comes too quickly for menAnd I smilennTaking me overnnShe wore no jewelsnNor costly diamondsnNo Paint nor powdernNo, none at all.nShe wore a bonnet,nWith a ribbon on it,nAnd around her shouder, was the Galway Shawln
