Lovers Leap - John Spillane[00:00:00]

About a mile from mallow town[00:00:00]

There is a place called lover's leap[00:00:03]

A beauty spot of great renown[00:00:06]

A jagged rock that rises steep[00:00:09]

A lonely cliff above the deep[00:00:12]

Black water[00:00:15]

The gentry planted all these trees[00:00:21]

The oak the beech and the lonely pine[00:00:24]

And courting couples sometimes please[00:00:27]

To wander there and take their time[00:00:29]

And breathe the beauty by the shining[00:00:32]

River[00:00:36]

About a hundred years ago[00:00:41]

Or so the local people tell[00:00:44]

Under a weight of great sorrow[00:00:47]

A handsome courting couple fell[00:00:49]

To their doom inside the dark[00:00:53]

Black water[00:00:56]

Lover's leap[00:01:02]

Together in endless peace[00:01:10]

Forever in blissful sleep[00:01:13]

A Catholic and Protestant[00:01:30]

Had fallen for each other's charms[00:01:33]

Their families would not consent[00:01:36]

They fled and sought each other's arms[00:01:38]

They sought each other's arms and fled[00:01:42]

And dived into their marriage bed[00:01:45]

Inside the cold[00:01:48]

Black water[00:01:50]

They reached the rocky height that night[00:01:55]

One last kiss one last embrace[00:01:58]

They cried and held each other tight[00:02:01]

Then stepping into endless space[00:02:03]

They wandered out into the air[00:02:06]

And left this earth for ever more[00:02:09]

And reached the sad[00:02:12]

Black water[00:02:14]

Their bodied wrapped in endless night[00:02:19]

Their souls sailed on into the bright[00:02:22]

Encircling stars and the caring moon[00:02:25]

The sun shone down upon their love[00:02:28]

From heaven's branches high above the dark[00:02:30]

Black water[00:02:36]

Lover's leap[00:02:42]

Together in endless peace[00:02:49]

Forever in blissful sleep[00:02:52]

The priest he offered up the host[00:02:59]

The river offered up the moon[00:03:02]

And Jesus wept to see his name[00:03:04]

Divided in a crazy game[00:03:07]

And Mary sent an angel down[00:03:10]

Who wandered on through mallow town[00:03:13]

And reached the great[00:03:16]

Black water[00:03:18]

Lover's leap[00:03:24]

Together in endless peace[00:03:32]

Forever in blissful sleep[00:03:34]
