Horslips

Horslips are an Irish celtic rock band that compose, arrange and perform songs based on traditional Irish jigs and reels. The group are regarded as 'founding fathers of celtic rock' for their fusion of traditional Irish music with rock music and went on to inspire many local and international acts. They formed in 1970 and 'retired' in 1980 for an extended period. The name originated from a spoonerism on The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse which became "The Four Poxmen of The Horslypse". more »

I lived alone without you 
Shadows on my wall 
Ghosts in my looking glass 
Voices in the hall 
At first I didn't understand 
I had nothing left to sell 
And although I played with fire 
My life was cold as hell
There came a knocking on my door 
The landlord dressed in black 
Said "pack your bags and move on out 
We don't ever want you back " 
And who was I to question 
The logic of his schemes 
When they proved there can be hope 
Wherever there are dreams
Mine are just a foolish heart
Couldn't fake a smile
Thought I'd find deliverance
Down another mile
And I remember being in love
So long ago it seems
The love that drives me ever on
Is the love I find in dreams
