Anne Murray Song for the Mira song lyrics

Out on the Mira, on warm afternoons

Old men go fishing, with black line and spoons

And if they catch nothing, they never complain

I wish I was with them again

As boys in their boats, call to girls on the shore

Teasing the ones that they dearly adore

And into the evening, the courting begins

I wish I was with them again

Can you imagine a piece of the universe

More fit for princes and kings?

I'll trade you ten of your cities for Marion Bridge

And the pleasure it brings

Out on the Mira, on soft summer nights

Bonfires blaze to the children's delight

They dance round the flames, singing songs with their friends

And I wish I was with them again

Can you imagine a piece of the universe

More fit for princes and kings?

I'll trade you ten of your cities for Marion Bridge

And the pleasure it brings

Now I'll conclude with a wish you go well

Sweet be your dreams, and your happiness swell

I'll leave you here, for my journey begins

I'm going to be with them, going to be with them

I'm going to be with them again

Can you imagine a piece of the universe

More fit for princes and kings?

I'll trade you ten of your cities for Marion Bridge

And the pleasure it brings

Can you imagine a piece of the universe

More fit for princes and kings?

I'll trade you ten of your cities for Marion Bridge

And the pleasure it brings
