Faster Than the Hound

Lyrics

MacRoth is Maeve's messanger. In this song he reflects on the events of
 the Tain.
 I once told her
 Where she could find her dream.
 And I still adore her,
 No matter how it seems.
 I saw our stars fall,
 Crash without a sound.
 Stars go crashing
 Faster than the Hound.
 I saw him sleeping
 Alone beneath the sky.
 I caught him weeping,
 And I, for one, knew why.
 I saw the ravens,
 Black without a sound.
 Ravens swirling
 Faster than the Hound.
 I travel Ireland in a day.
 You just nod, I'm on my way.
 I've golden wings upon my feet.
 I seldom touch the ground.
 The only thing I'm not
 Is faster than the Hound.
 Now I watch her leaving
 With the light of people's dreams,
 Ignorant of rainbows
 In the trees where we have been.
 Also there are ravens
 High above the ground.
 Ravens growing closer
 Faster than the Hound
