>out on the mira on soft summer nights
>bonfires blaze to the children's delight
>they dance round the flames singing songs with their friends
>and i wish i was with them again

>and over the ashes stories are told
>of witches and werewolves and oak island gold
>the stars on the river they sparkle and spin
>and i wish i was with them again
>
>chorus

>out on the mira the people are kind
>they'll treat you to homebrew and help you unwind
>and if you come broken they'll see that you mend
>and i wish i was with them again
>
>but now i'll conclude with the wish-you-go-well
>sweet be your dreams and your happiness swell
>i'm leaving now for my journey begins
>and i'm going to be with them again
>(yes i'm going to be with them again)
>
>chorus
