Selkie - Written by Lennie Gallant

Lyrics

Took a walk under a blood moon late at night Barefoot at the edge of an ocean that shone so bright Thought I heard a song drift in on the rollin’ sea
A voice that sweetly sang like a lost selkie

I need you tonight, like a magic skin
Take a walk by the water's edge, Baby let me in
I need you tonight, I just can’t wait for the changing tide, no.. no

Send me a sign to show me where you sleep Give me the key to secrets that you keep How long must I search this rocky shore
It’s just the taste of you I’m dying for
I need you tonight, like a magic skin
Let your hair fall down by the water, Baby let me in
I need you tonight, I just can’t wait for the changing tide

À ‘s a’ mhuir, a’ mhuir, a thàinig mi,
À ‘s a’ mhuir, a thàinig mi-fhín
À ‘s a’ mhuir, a’ mhuir, a thàinig mi,
À ‘s a’ mhuir, a thàinig mi-fhín
À ‘s a’ mhuir, a’ mhuir, a thàinig mi,
À ‘s a’ mhuir, a thàinig mi-fhín
Cha robh mi m’ ònar a-raoir

Took a walk under a blood moon late at night Thought I heard a selkie cry

I need you tonight, like a magic skin Let Take a by the water's edge Baby come on in
I need you tonight,
I just can’t wait for the changing tide, no.. no

À ‘s a’ mhuir, a’ mhuir, a thàinig mi,
À ‘s a’ mhuir, a thàinig mi-fhín
À ‘s a’ mhuir, a’ mhuir, a thàinig mi,
À ‘s a’ mhuir, a thàinig mi-fhín
À ‘s a’ mhuir, a’ mhuir, a thàinig mi,
À ‘s a’ mhuir, a thàinig mi-fhín
À ‘s a’ mhuir, a’ mhuir, a thàinig mi,
À ‘s a’ mhuir, a thàinig mi-fhín
Cha robh mi m’ ònar a-raoir
