lirik lagu mcginty - ballad of st. anne's reel
[instrumental intro: st. anne’s reel on fiddle]
[verse 1]
he was stranded in some tiny town, on fair prince edward isle’
waitin’ for a ship to come and find him
a one~horse place, a friendly face, some coffee an’ a tiny trace
of fiddlin’ in the distance far behind him
[verse 2]
a dime across the counter then, a shy h~llo, a brand~new friend
a walk along the street in the wint’ry weather
yellow light, an open door, a “welcome friend, there’s room for more!”
and then they’re standin’ there inside together
[chorus]
he said “i’ve heard that tune before somewhere, but i can’t remember when..
was it on some other friendly shore, did i hear it on the wind?
or was it written on the sky above. i think i heard it from someone i love
but i never heard it sound so sweet, since then” (yep!)
[instrumental break: st. anne’s reel on fiddle]
[verse 4]
now his feet begin to tap, a young boy said “i’ll take your cap”
he’s caught up in the magic of his smile
[and leaped inside the heart, when off across the floor]
he sends his clumsy body graceful as a child
[verse 4]
he said “there’s magic in that fiddler’s arm, there’s magic in this town
there’s magic in the dancer’s feet and the way they put ’em down”
people smilin’ everywhere, boots and ribbons, locks of hair
and laughter and old blue suits and easter gowns. (yea, l’go!)
[instrumental break: st. anne’s reel on fiddle]
[verse 5]
now the sailor’s gone, the room is bare, the old piano’s sittin’ there
someone’s hat left hangin’ on the rack
the empty chairs, the wooden floor that feels the touch of shoes no more
waitin’ for the dancers to come back
[verse 6]
and that fiddle’s in the closet of some daughter of the town
the strings are broken, the bow is gone, and the cover’s b~ttoned down
sometimes on december nights, when the air is cold and wind is right
there’s a melody that passes through this town
[chorus]
he said “i’ve heard that tune before somewhere, but i can’t remember when..
was it on some other friendly shore, did i hear it on the wind?
or was it written on the sky above. i think i heard it from someone i love
but i never heard it sound so sweet, since then” (take it away!)
