Iona Song Lyrics - Waterboys

Iona, sweet Iona 

island out of time 

Your lost child is returning 

his shadow close behind 

Anger in his breast 

black dog in his mind 

I feel like an island of rage 

in a vast sea of peace 

Like a worm in a cathedral 

like a beggar at a feast 

Columba heal my black heart! 

let my nightmare cease

Lace upon the window 

patterns on the sheets 

Three ships in the distance 

horsemen in the street 

Lord God fit me 

to be your hands and feet
