One day, one night, one moment,
My dreams could be, tomorrow.
One step, one fall, one falter,
East or west, over earth or by ocean.
One way to be my journey,
This way could be my book of days.

O la go la, mo thuras,
An bealach fada romham.
O oiche go hoiche, mo thuras,
Na scealta nach mbeidh a choich.

No day, no night, no moment,
Can hold me back from trying.
I'll flag, I'll fall, I'll falter,
I'll find my day may be,
Far and away,
Far and away.

One day, one night, one moment,
With a dream to believe in.
One step, one fall, one falter,
And a new earth across a wide ocean.
This way became my journey,
This day ends together,
Far and away.

This day ends together,
Far and away.
Far and away.

be nice if I could hear what she's saying. 
I love Enya and it's not a guilty pleasure, cause I like it. So wheres the guilt?
Peace to my sisters and brothers sendin' love
Can’t do Enya, I’m afraid.
Enya is simply WONDERFUL!
There is a MUCH better version of this song.  You cannot hear the lyrics on this verion.  Terrible.  I am still giving it a 10.  If you ever get a chance to hear the version with lyrics, it is much better.

Even a guy calling himself JokesandJokesandJokes has material limits, huh?

Flash back to fifth grade. My best friend had this tape, we used to listen to it in her room while playing with her kitten and reading books. Nostalgia....
there is no excuse for enya. ever
Joe, It's fairly obvious that you are pez and you're just talking to yourself. You're not fooling anyone. That's lame dude.

So you haven't worked out the broom-closet-at-Heathrow logistics yet? I must say I'm disappointed, my dear.
Sounds tasty dear... do you actually own any Enya CDs though?? The Marvin Gaye's a given... must be required listening for any Valentine's Day date. Even if she is a sure thing.
Yes dear..... Anybody ill yet? I think Bill needs to play Beetles more. And I love you.
I'm sure Joe' loves this song almost as much as he loves me!
OOOHH NOOO! It's the female Yani!
It's a paradigm Enya - one of those that defines her style. It would be nice to see the translation - if it were Welsh I'd have a fighting chance (at least the references) but Gaelic is another matter. Raven
It's a digit, it's up... bu it's not a thumb. I concur. timojuhala wrote:

Any one seen FAR AND AWAY? She does a version with words as the theme song for the movie. I love this song.. I actually didn't know that she had adapted her song here for Far and Away!
I wouldn't choose to listen to it on my own, but it is very soothing. Every time I've gotten a massage, the technician has played Enya

Not this song -- this song is fairly new, but other Enya songs. I remember noticing it was in quite a few movies, although right now the only one that comes to mind is "Green Card" -- you know, the one with the french guy and Andie MacDowell... the one that should have really sucked, but was strangely charming...
I like Enya (nice change for RP), but I wish she would stop churning out effectively the same album year after year.

Thanks for making that clearer. I'm going to a happy place now.
Needs a movie to be the score of.
After having to suffer Bruce Springsteen.... nice of Bill to pay a little Enya to calm me down. Thanks Bill.... I appreciate it
