A friend that you can trust in any midsummer's burning sky understanding of a druid And the innocence of a child Memories of snowflakes And of those who understood you There're all gone now I only wish for you the world of good All your precious photographs and all your favorite dreams When the years have gone behind you That chance to be nineteen Children in your likeness Of the same inspiring blood And a man who makes you happy I only wish for you the world of good Chorus The sky at night and the open sea A clear refreshing mountain stream Tir-na-nog and Robin Hood I wish for you the world of good A box of sìog hand- me-downs That follow you around
A winding road that leads you to Another stronghold town I know you'd take me with you If you really thought you should But if you up and go alone I wish for you a world of good Chorus Through the Screaming of your childhood In a land that's torn apart And the chilling cold of violent deeds Somehow strengthens your warm heart Your gentle firm and peaceful ways Have long since well withstood... the darkness in this country I only wish for you the world of good Chorus Oh I love you girl and I always will You know you're part of my life still Though times have changed .... it's understood I wish for you the World of Good ..... the World of Good
