这首歌收录在爱尔兰钢琴家Phil Coulter2001年的唱片lake of shadows中

由Sinead O'Connor演唱

爱尔兰的Lough Swilly对Phil Coulter而言是个十分特殊的地方

在那里交织着温暖与悲伤

80年代，那里的一个湖同时夺走了他的一个兄弟和一个姐妹的生命

不过在那里也保留有着他孩提度假时的记忆。

而这首歌就记叙了他的记忆中姐妹cyd coulter去世时的情景

歌曲只用了句很淡的描写

刻画出儿时的他当时的无助和他失去手足时那一刻的无限悲痛

伴奏只有钢琴

演奏者是爱尔兰钢琴家Phil Coulter

流水般的钢琴

配上光头美女那爱尔兰民族味道很浓的演唱

再加上爱尔兰式的叙事歌词中的淡淡的忧伤

整首歌让人回味无穷

lyricsBy the shores of the Swilly, two children at play

The king of the castle, the queen of the may

Just me and my sister, in a world of pretend

Where the sun would keep shining, the day never end

By the shores of the Swilly, now with kids of our own

Another year over, and see how they've grown

Then we'd watch the last sunset, and walk arm in arm

Till I see you next summer; God keep you from harm

And if I was a flier who crashed now and then,

she would put me together and fly me again.

[ Piano ]

And if I was a flier who crashed now and then,

she would put me together and fly me again.

By the shores of the Swilly, with an aching inside

I'll watch as her body is raised from the tide...

Her life has been taken, and I'll never know why

but I feel in that moment, a part of me died...
