[00:00.00]	Loreena McKennitt - The Old Ways
[00:45.00]
[04:57.38][04:31.82][04:06.56][01:33.48]	The thundering waves are calling me home,home to you
[05:09.70][04:44.46][04:19.00][01:46.00]	The pounding sea is calling me home,home to you
[05:21.37][04:55.38][04:29.40][01:56.42]
[01:58.25]	On a dark new year＇s night
[02:01.50]	On the west coast of Clare
[02:04.62]	I heard your voice singing
[02:11.41]	Your eyes danced the song
[02:14.23]	Your hands played the tune
[02:17.20]	T＇was a vision before me.
[02:21.91]
[02:23.33]	We left the music behind and the dance carried on
[02:30.24]	As we stole away to the seashore
[02:36.19]	We smelt the brine, felt the wind in our hair
[02:42.76]	And with sadness you paused.
[02:46.68]	Suddenly I knew that you＇d have to go
[02:53.03]	Your world was not mine, your eyes told me so
[02:59.31]	Yet it was there I felt the crossroads of time
[03:05.13]	And I wondered why.
[03:08.95]
[03:14.95]	As we cast our gaze on the tumbling sea
[03:21.54]	A vision came o＇er me
[03:28.11]	Of thundering hooves and beating wings
[03:34.06]	In th clouds above.
[03:37.79]	Turned to go I heard you call my name,
[03:43.34]	Like a bird in a cage spreading its wings to fly
[03:50.27]	＂The old ways are lost,＂ you sang as you flew
[03:56.29]	And I wondered why.
