Oh you grew up across the water
I admired you from afar
Next door neighbour's farmer's daughter
Took on the world like the star you are

Now that you are home at last
I couldn't let this moment pass
I just want to let you know
I never wanna let you go

In between the hopping and the trotting
The flame's not forgotten
In between the toing and the froing
The fire was always growing
You went your way, I went mine
The heart you know is the hand of time
Now you know how I feel
In between the jigs and the reels

Our little houses by the water
Trouble-free and full of life
Two strong sons, a precious daughter
A husband and his loving wife

Now we have our home at last
I didn't let the moment pass
I thank the Lord I let you know
I never ever let you go

In between the hopping and the trotting
The flame's not forgotten
In between the toing and the froing
The fire was always growing
You went your way, I went mine
The heart you know is the hand of time
Now you know how I feel
In between the jigs and the reels, hey

In between the hopping and the trotting
The flame's not forgotten
In between the toing and the froing
The fire was always growing
You went your way, I went mine
The heart you know is the hand of time
Now you know how I feel
In between the jigs and the reels

All the hopping and the trotting
And the toing and the froing
In between the jigs and the reels
All the hopping and the trotting
And the toing and the froing
Yes, in between the jigs and the reels
