Clannad - Signs of Life lyrics

rate me

At length did cross an albatross

Through the fog it came

As if it had been a Christian soul

We hailed it in God's name

It ate the food it ne'er had eat

And 'round and 'round it flew

The ice did split with a thunder fit

The helmsman steered us through

And a good south wind sprang up behind

The albatross did follow

And everyday for food or play

Came to the mariners' hollow
