Diarmuid Cahill - Solid Ground Lyrics

Hugging the side of the road
Hauling a heavy load
Clouds stretched out to the North
There goes my beating heart

Then coming 'round the bend
Like unbridled horses run
Thoughts crashing at the bow
Of another Mother's son

Then breaking through the waves
Against this force of nature
Silent voices calling out
Not to loose the court's favour
Gotta tear it from within, stoke the fire
And burn the embers
Close the door then turn around
Rest your feet on Solid Ground

Never known so many turns
Getting dizzy as it burns
There's no peace in a struggle
'Til the King gives way to rubble

Fill me up with grace and wonder
Each stone unturned until it's over
Never known a note that's sweeter
Coming from a Mother's tongue

Then breaking through the waves
Against this force of nature
Silent voices calling out
Not to loose the court's favour
Gotta tear it from within, stoke the fire
And burn the embers
Close the door then turn around
Rest your feet on Solid Ground

Raised the flag of many Fathers
Dropped anchor in their harbours
Now I'm calling it sober
Not looking over my shoulder

Breaking through the waves
Against this force of nature
Silent voices calling out
Not to loose the court's favour
Gotta tear it from within, stoke the fire
And burn the embers
Close the door then turn around
Rest your feet on Solid Ground
Rest your feet on Solid Ground
Rest your feet on Solid Ground
Rest your feet on Solid Ground
