Playing the Olympia Theatre in Dublin on this tour was a special evening and something I’ve dreamed about. It was incredible to play to a packed audience in my home town with friends and family there.

----------- Lyrics -----------

For all the moments never known,
‘Cause he stepped off of the tallest sail.
For all the love he’d left below,
In the waves.

He made his peace with letting go,
Said some things he’d never dared to say.
The one the lighthouse left alone,
Never saved,

‘Till a set of eyes had pinned him,
Became his version of a kingdom.
Now I know they’ll never hunt me,
When she’s singing to me: Glory.

And a hopeful rhythm woke within him.
Had some letters written, ‘course she’s in ‘em.
Tried to tell her, throat was linen.

I was only ever thinking ‘bout ya, you know.

They found a letter that he wrote,
He said, “It’s best off if we burn the page.
I wrote it very long ago,
In different days.”

“I guess I’m tired of talk of hope,
I’ve learned that doves & ravens fly the same.
But suddenly she’s all I know,
An old refrain.”

A set of eyes had pinned him,
Became his version of a kingdom.
Now I know they’ll never hunt me,
When she’s singing to me: Glory.

A set of eyes had pinned him,
Became his version of a kingdom,
She’s everything the devil can’t be,
When she’s singing to me: Glory.
