She Was The Prize

I've lived a long life And now I'm looking back It's the end of the road The last stop on the track And I smile as think of my true love once more The light of my life The one I adore She, she was the prize The prettiest girl with the loveliest eyes She, she was the prize Shiny black hair and those lovely, those a lovely brown eyes I met her one night at the harvest fair dance I longed for a whisper, I hoped for a glance Then she turned and she smiled and I melted away And I knew I'd be with her 'till my dying day She, she was the prize The prettiest girl with the loveliest eyes She, she was the prize Shiny black hair and those lovely, ah those a lovely brown eyes We lay on the cliffs And we walked hand in hand We threw stones at the waves We drew hearts in the sand With out warning clouds rolled in and blackened the sun And when they rolled out My light she was gone She, she was the prize The prettiest girl with the lovliest eyes She, she was the prize Shiny black hair and those lovely, those a lovely brown eyes I've shed all my tears And I've said my goodbyes Now I lay myself down Where my pretty girl lies And when I awake I'll be on earth no more I'll be dancing a jig with the girl I adore She, she was the prize The prettiest girl with the lovliest eyes She, she was the prize Shiny black hair and those lovely, those a lovely brown eyes --- She Was the Prize - Gaelic Storm
