Lyrics Time Is Like a Promise - Tír na nÓg

Time Is Like a Promise

If rain will fall high up here upon the mountain
Grass will grow and shepherds will be thankful
And our love will cover up all the mountain
For time is like a promise —
It tries all your strength to keep to
Before she came I lived alone upon the mountain
The raven heard your voice high upon the wind
Then one day you came to me upon the mountain
For time is like a promise —
It tries all your strength to keep to
The sun goes down and shadows soon are interweaving
But she lies so deep inside my love surrounds her
Time will outdo us, this I only know too well
For time is like a promise —
It tries all your strength to keep to
