Lyrics
The frost has kissed the window pane
The world outside is drowned in rain
But in this room, the fire's gold
Where every stranger's story's told
The weary mason drops his load
Beside the rogue who walks the road
We leave our titles at the door
For on these planks, we're something more
Hear the beat, the floorboards shake
Oh, oh, oh
For a single moment that we make
Oh, oh, oh, let the rafters ring tonight
Raise a glass to the fading light
Oh, oh, oh, sing it till our throats are sore
Then we'll fill our cups and ask for more
Let the rhythm be our guide, with a fire deep inside
Just the music and the tide of a feeling we can't hide
The fiddler's bow begins to fly
A spark of mischief in her eye
She plays the tune of summer's end
And every foe becomes a friend
Forgetting debts and foolish pride
There is no place for us to hide
From this one truth that holds us fast
A simple joy that's built to last
Feel the pulse, a rising thunder
Ey, ey, ey
Tearing all our doubts asunder
Oh, oh, oh, let the rafters ring tonight
Raise a glass to the fading light
Oh, oh, oh, sing it till our throats are sore
Then we'll fill our cups and ask for more
Let the rhythm be our guide, with a fire deep inside
Just the music and the tide of a feeling we can't hide
One day these timbers will be dust
Our silver coins will turn to rust
But the echo of this simple tune
Will hang beneath the silent moon
So breathe it in
This fleeting grace
In this moment, in this place
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Let the rafters ring tonight
Raise a glass to the fading light
Oh, oh, oh, sing it till our throats are sore
Then we'll fill our cups and ask for more
Let the rhythm be our guide, with a fire deep inside
Just the music and the tide of a feeling we can't hide
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
A feeling we can't hide
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
A feeling we can't hide
