Head ladies center teacup chain
An island in the sunlight, laughter in the rain
A whiskey in the darkness, it all feels just the same
Allemande and weave
Watch the sunset over Galway, see the twilight merge to dawn
Hear the waves caress the shoreline, as the island carries on

Heads pass the ocean, extend
Spin chain the gears
(I am walking on the waves.) I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
But with you by my side I am walking on the waves
Swing thru come two by two, swing thru again
All eight circulate, swing and promenade
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
But with you by my side I am walking on the waves

Heads lead right, circle to a line of four
Then touch 1/4 here, coordinate (I've been walking, walking)
Bend the line, right & left thru turn the girl
Load the boat
(I've been walking, walking these shores all my days)
Swing your corner, and then promenade
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
But with you by my side I am walking

Four ladies chain across the ring
Four ladies chain again
Join hands circle left and then
Left allemande and weave
And it's a game of sweet surrender
When there's nothing left to say
And there are moments to remember
Once these days are long away

Sides lead to the right, veer to the left
Chain down the line, dance up to the middle and back
Touch 1/4, coordinate (but with you by my side), ferris wheel
Centers veer to the left and veer to the right
Everybody veer to the right
Boys trade, and promenade
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
But with you by my side I am walking on the waves

Sides star thru
Double pass thru, track two
Girls trade, spin chain the gears
(But with you by my side I am walking on the waves
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days) Recycle
Swing and promenade
I've been walking, walking these shores all my days
But with you by my side...

Circle left
So you look out on the ocean
See the headlands and the strands
Boys star by the right hand
Left allemande and weave
And through the turning of the seasons
And the cycle of the days
Every drink's another reason
To let tomorrow sail away

Four ladies chain, chain 'em back
Bow to the partner, corners, too
