David McWilliams - Sheelo Gone So Long lyrics

Sheelo, Sheelo, the sea upon the shore Whispers to me softly of days I'll see no more The mountains, the mountains, so proudly do they stand How often have I walked there, since last I held your hand Sheelo, Sheelo, Sheelo gone so long Sheelo, Sheelo, the things you said to me And once I gazed upon you no other could I see A stranger a stranger you never could have been More precious far than diamonds you still are in my dreams Sheelo, Sheelo, Sheelo gone so long Sheelo, Sheelo, you were the sun and stars You gave to me a rainbow we could have gone so far Emeralds and rubies, sapphires deep as blue I'd give them all and more than all, to walk again with you Sheelo, Sheelo, Sheelo gone so long.
