ASTRAL WEEKS by Van Morrison

Not complainin'...
Woke up this morning with caviar burps.
So I put some whisky on it. All better!
Happy New Year!

"Celtic New Year" [2005]
by Van Morrison

If I don't see you through the week
See you through the window
See you next time that we're talking on the telephone
And if I don't see you in that Indian summer
Then I want to see you further on up the road

I said, oh won't you come back?
I have to see you my dear
Want you come back in the Celtic New Year?
In the Celtic New Year

If I don't see you when I'm going down Louisiana
If I don't see you when I'm down on Bourbon Street
If you don't see me when I'm singing Jack of Diamonds
If you don't see me when I'm on my lucky streak

Woa, I want you, want you to come on back
I've made it very clear
I want you to come back home in the Celtic New Year
Celtic New Year

If I don't see you when the bonfires are burning, burning
If I don't see you when we're singing the Gloriana tune
If I've got to see you when it's raining deep inside the forest
I got to see you at the waning of the moon

Said oh, won't you come on back?
Want you to be of good cheer
Come back home on the Celtic New Year

Celtic New Year, Celtic New Year
Celtic New Year
In the Celtic New Year
In the Celtic New Year

Come on home, come on home, come on home, come on home
In the Celtic New Year

CELTIC NEW YEAR - VAN MORRISON

Best of the Season to Y'all!

"Glad Tidings" (rec1969 ~1970rel)
by Van Morrison

[Verse 1]
And they'll lay you down, low and easy
And the lips that you kiss will say Christmas
And the miles that you traveled the distance

[Pre-Chorus]
So believe no lies
Dry your eyes and realize
That surprise
La la la la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
La la la la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la

[Verse 2]
And the business will shake hands and talk in numbers
And the princess will wake up from her slumber
Then all the knights will step forth with their arm bands
And every stranger you meet in the street will make demands

[Pre-Chorus]
So believe no lies
Then dry your eyes and realize
That surprise
La la la la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
La la la la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la

[Chorus]
And we'll send you glad tidings from New York
Open up your eyes so you may see
Ask you not to read between the lines
Hope that you will come right in on time, oh

[Verse 3]
And they'll talk to you while you're in trances
And you'll visualize not taking any chances
But meet them halfway with love, peace, and persuasion
And expect them to rise for the occasion

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't it gratify when you see it materialize
Right in front of your eyes by surprise
La la la la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
La la la la, la la la la, la la la la, la la la la
Mmm mmm

[Chorus]
And we'll send you glad tidings from New York
Open up your eyes so you may see
Ask you not to read between the lines
Hope that you will come right in on time, woah

[Outro]
And they'll lay you down, low and easy
