At The Céili Lyrics - Singles - Celtic Woman

ALL: 

Tonight we're going to meet some lads 

As girls who dressed up gaily 

And we'll be dancing till the dawn 

We're going to the Ceili 

The ones they come from miles around 

From Venice and from 

To show us all their fancy steps 

We're going to the Ceili 

They're playing tunes on everything 

From pipes to ukulele 

It sounds so good you can't sit down 

We're dancing At The Ceili

LISA: 

All the boys we love so well 

So handsome, young and charming 

They're in New York and Boston now 

They should be home here farming 

My own true love has sailed away 

To be an endless rover 

Cause times are tough and he will save 

To start a new life over 

He writes me letters every week 

To say how much he's slavin' 

And he promises that he'll be back 

Before the hay needs savin' 

But it's hard to love somebody 

That you're not in touch with daily 

So I'm looking for somebody new 

Tonight down At The Ceili 

Photos 

The winter nights are long and hard 

And time goes by so slowly 

I wish my true love he was here 

And in his arms I'd go 

He'd whisper tender words of love to me 

And kiss my lips so sweetly 

And quickly I'd surrender to 

His manly charms completely 

ALL: 

He writes me letters every week 

To say how much he's slavin' 

And he promises that he'll be back 

Before the hay needs savin' 

But it's hard to love somebody 

That you're not in touch with daily 

So I'm looking for somebody new 

Tonight down At The Ceili 

So I'm looking for somebody new 

Tonight down At The Ceili 

ORLAGH: 

I only need someone tonight 

Who'll make my heart beat fast 

A handsome man in black and white 

Who smiles as he walks past 

The harp may play in old time worlds 

He'll twirl me round the floor 

He'll promise me that I will be 

His girl forevermore 

His girl forevermore 

His girl forevermore 

He'll promise me that I will be 

His girl forevermore 

MEAV: 

I'm somewhat ill and bothered 

That is really quite alarming 

I have to lads pursuing me 

And each of them is charming 

One of them is dark and poor 

One pale with lots of money 

I don't know which one to choose 

The flowered or the funny 

What on earth am I to do 

It's driving me half crazy 

Tonight I'll make my mind up 

When I see them At The Ceili 

To be a poor man's wife will be 

A life of washing dishes 

When a rich man's wife will surely have 

Great luxury and riches 

In comfort how I know 

It wouldn't be too hard to wallow 

But being poor is that much fun 

Which one should I follow? 

ALL: 

What on earth am I to do 

It's driving me half crazy 

Tonight I'll make my mind up 

When I see them At The Ceili: 

LISA: 

I've been lucky I've found a lad who's handsome and a neighbor 

ORLAGH: 

And me I've met a decent man who's friendship I will savor 

MEAV: 

And me I've made my choice as well and in no way was it easy 

But I'd rather have a man for love 

Then to be a rich man's lady 

ALL: 

And that is how the story ends 

Be true and never fail me 

We got ourselves three men tonight 

And we met them
