Subject: Lyr Req: The Penny Falls (Kaley) by Seán Keane From: GUEST,Hildred Date: 09 Jun 14 - 06:34 PM Desperately looking for the lyrics to The Penny Falls, written by Anth & Gerry Kaley, as sung by the wonderfully talented Voice of Ireland, Seán Keane on his album You Got Gold and more recently on Never Alone, thus far to no avail. Can anyone help put me out of my misery, please?? :-) |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Penny Falls (Kaley) by Seán Keane From: GUEST,Hildred Date: 11 Jun 14 - 08:53 PM The chorus is something like this: "My heart plays host to all these (hopes?), but if you can't recall, we never laughed, we never danced, we never loved at all. It seems I must have dreamed it all but I still hear the penny fall." Verses. Can only catch a word here and there, but something like this: "Where did those (days?) in ......???? to shake their senses through the stars. I'd lose you there, you'd slip the bars and find a (mirrored hall)? There muscle bound proud hammer held (would?) stretch their hearts to strike a bell I knew you'd found your wishing well and missed the ......." There appears to be only two verses and the chorus but he repeats the first verse at the end. It's a slow, lullaby type melancholy and haunting melody. |

Subject: Lyr Add: THE PENNY FALLS (Anthony & Gerry Kaley) From: GUEST,Guest, Hildred Date: 30 Jun 14 - 06:34 PM I finally got the "The Penny Falls" lyrics (By Anthony & Gerry Kaley) In case anyone else would like to have them, here they are: THE PENNY FALLS (Anthony/Gerry Kaley IMRO/PRS) Where devils dare in chrome tipped cars To shake their senses through the stars I'd lose you there, you'd slip the bars And find mirrored halls. While fools would boast of flights once made From dizzy heights to rolling waves On windy coasts in bright arcades you played the penny falls. Chorus: My heart plays host to all these ghosts But if yours can't recall We never laughed, we never danced We never loved at all It seems I must have dreamed it all But I still hear the penny falls. The muscle bound proud hammer held Would stretch their hearts to strike a bell I knew you'd found your wishing well And missed the Viking call. While spinning clowns would waltz themselves Round timber seas in gilded shells You stood your ground, you watched the shelves And played the penny falls. Chorus My heart plays host to all these ghosts But if yours can't recall We never laughed, we never danced We never loved at all It seems I must have dreamed it all But I still hear the penny falls. |
