Luke Kelly The Night Visiting Song

Sadly lukes last perfomance,
and amazing right until the end.

Lyrics:

I must away now, I can no longer tarry
This morning's tempest I have to cross
I must be guided without a stumble
Into the arms I love the most

And when he came to his true love's dwelling
He knelt down gently upon a stone
And through her window he's whispered lowly
Is my true love within at home?

Wake up, wake up love, it is thine own true lover
Wake up, wake up love, and let me in
For I am tired love and oh, so weary
And more than near drenched to the skin

She's raised her off her down soft pillow
She's raised her up and she's let him in
And they were locked in each others arms
Until that long night was past and gone

And when that long night was past and over
And when the small clouds began to grow
He's taken her hand and they've kissed and parted
Then he saddled and mounted and away did go

I must away now, I can no longer tarry
This morning's tempest I have to cross
I must be guided without a stumble
Into the arms I love the most

thumbs up if LOVE/HATE brought you here

[Nightdub90]

Love/Hate brought new attention to the brilliance that was Luke Kelly!

[19jenko19]

ive listened too this a thousand times and it still blows me away.

[The4stringman]

why would the 8 people who disliked this do such an unethical thing?

[dermymoto]

A beautiful song sung so eloquently by a true icon of this country.So sad to see Ireland has lost it's way and seems now to be a nation of consumers in an economy rather than a community.The nonsense fascination with celebrity/x factor will not be treasured by future generations.Luke Kelly and bands like the dubliners and bothy band will.

@ChaosRiddenReaper Whats love/hate? I found this just by searching luke kelly.

[cliptop]

8 people are fucking idiots, you can see the passion that drove him to sing one last time for us, and that deserves to be appreciated even tho i hate to see him that way.
