Through summers long and winters cold
May you always have someone good to hold
And may good fortune wait on every bend
And may your winning streak
May it never end
So, roll the dice, boy, 'cause my money's on you
Take my advice now and put your money down too
Because there's something in the eye you just can't pretend
And may your winning streak
May it never end
And may the sign
Of the Southern Cross
Be some comfort to you when you're lost
And may the devil's evil eye
Pass you by
Well, it's not for glory, I tell you true
That I do these things I do for you
But for a promise I made now I must defend
And may your winning streak
May it never end
And may the sign of the cross
Be some comfort when you're lost
Help you when you're all broke down
May the spirit of good brethren
Turn you around
And may the devil's evil eye
Pass you right by
Don't you look back my friend
And may the sisters of good charity
Take you in
Through summers long and winters cold
May you always have someone good to hold
And may good fortune be constant and loyal friend
And may your winning streak
May it never end
May your winning streak
May it never end
May you always have someone good to hold
And may good fortune wait on every bend
And may your winning streak
May it never end
So, roll the dice, boy, 'cause my money's on you
Take my advice now and put your money down too
Because there's something in the eye you just can't pretend
And may your winning streak
May it never end
And may the sign
Of the Southern Cross
Be some comfort to you when you're lost
And may the devil's evil eye
Pass you by
Well, it's not for glory, I tell you true
That I do these things I do for you
But for a promise I made now I must defend
And may your winning streak
May it never end
And may the sign of the cross
Be some comfort when you're lost
Help you when you're all broke down
May the spirit of good brethren
Turn you around
And may the devil's evil eye
Pass you right by
Don't you look back my friend
And may the sisters of good charity
Take you in
Through summers long and winters cold
May you always have someone good to hold
And may good fortune be constant and loyal friend
And may your winning streak
May it never end
May your winning streak
May it never end

If there only would be air for breathing, and love necessary, I would give all my capabilities to this paradise on earth!

Really? When I first heard it I thought it was an homage to John Prine. That's one of the amazing things about music. The same song can affect different people so differently. I think it's a great song. I gave it an 8 out of the G8, which is unusual for me. I don't even rate all that many songs. But this one really caught my attention.
For the first version of this song please see;
Forever Young by Bob Dylan :-)

Wow, it was so easy to make your world complete!
First to comment on an RP song, which is the only real reason I'm commenting. My world is now complete.

I can think of so many times I could use this lyric to congratulate others and to offer best-wishes. Toast to Hansard and RP for another musical discovery!
