The Waterboys

The Waterboys play a mix of Celtic folk music with rock & roll.
Let's listen to three of their songs.



How long will I love you?
As long as 1 ................... are above you
And 2.............. if I can

How long will I need you?
As long as the 3......................... need to
Follow their plan

How long will I be with you?
As long as the sea is bound to
Wash upon the sand

How long will I want you?
As long as you want me to
And 2................................. by far

How long will I 4........................... you?
As long as your father told you
As long as you are

How long will I give to you?
As long as I live to you
5........................ long you say

How long will I love you?
As long as 1.................... are above you
And 2............................... if I may

How long will I love you?
How long will I love you?
How long will I love you?



I wish I was a fisherman
tumbling on the 1.........................
far away from 2........................... land
and its bitter memories
casting out my 3...................... line
with abandonment and love
no ceiling bearing down on me
save the starry 4............................ above
with light in my head
with you in my arms...

I wish I was the brakeman
on a hurtling fevered train
crashing head long into the heartland
like a 5............................. in the rain
with the feeling of the sleepers
and the burning of the coal
counting the towns flashing by
and a night that's full of soul
with light in my head
with you in my arms...

And I know I will be loosened
from the bonds that 6......................... me fast
and the 7............................. all around me
will fall away at last
and on that grand and fateful day
I will take thee in my hand
I will ride on a train
I will be the fisherman
With light in my head
You in my arms...

Light in my head
You in my arms...

Light in my head




A man is in love, how do I know?
He came and walked with me and he told me so
In a song he sang and then I 1..............................
A man is in love with you

A man is in love, how did I 2..........................?
I heard him talk too much whenever you're near
He 3........................ your name when his eyes were closed
A man is in love and he 4 .........................

A man is in love, how did I 5..................................?
I figured it out while he was watching you 6............................
He'd give you his all, if you'd but 7...................................
A man is in love and he's me
