Lyrics The Stolen Child (Remastered) - The Waterboys
Come
away,
human
child
To
the
water
Come
away,
human
child
To
the
water
and
the
wild
With
a
faery,
hand
in
hand
For
the
world's
more
full
of
weeping
than
you
can
understand
Where
dips
the
rocky
highland
Of
Sleuth
Wood
in
the
lake
There
lies
a
leafy
island
Where
flapping
herons
wake
The
drowsy
water
rats;
There
we've
hid
our
faery
vats
Full
of
berries
And
of
reddest
stolen
cherries
Come
away,
human
child
To
the
water
Come
away,
human
child
To
the
water
and
the
wild
With
a
faery,
hand
in
hand
For
the
world's
more
full
of
weeping
than
you
can
understand
Where
the
wave
of
moonlight
glosses
The
dim
gray
sands
with
light
Far
off
by
furthest
Rosses
We
foot
it
all
the
night
Weaving
olden
dances
Mingling
hands
and
mingling
glances
Till
the
moon
has
taken
flight;
To
and
fro
we
leap
ANd
chase
the
frothy
bubbles
While
the
world
is
full
of
troubles
And
is
anxious
in
its
sleep
Come
away,
human
child
To
the
water
Come
away,
human
child
To
the
water
and
the
wild
With
a
faery,
hand
in
hand
For
the
world's
more
full
of
weeping
than
you
can
understand
Where
the
wandering
water
gushes
From
the
hills
above
Glen-Car
In
pools
among
the
rushes
The
scarce
could
bathe
a
star
We
seek
for
slumbering
trout
And
whispering
in
their
ears
We
give
them
unquiet
dreams;
Leaning
softly
out
From
ferns
that
drop
their
tears
Over
the
young
streams
Away
with
us
he's
going
The
solemn-eyed:
He'll
hear
no
more
the
lowing
Of
the
calves
on
the
warm
hillside;
Or
the
kettle
on
the
hob
Sing
peace
into
his
breast
Or
see
the
brown
mice
bob
Around
and
around
the
oatmeal-chest
For
he
comes,
the
human
child
To
the
water
He
comes,
the
human
child
To
the
water
and
the
wild
With
a
faery,
hand
in
hand
From
a
world
more
full
of
weeping
than
he
can
understand
Human
child
Human
child
With
a
faery,
hand
in
hand
From
a
world
more
full
of
weeping
than
he
can
understand...
Than
he
can
understand...
He
can
understand...
