Vance, Foy - Closed Hand, Full Of Friends Lyrics
The scenery's changing and it warms my soul
I'm 200 miles down and a long way yet to go
So get your boots on and your walking cool
And we'll together leave our footprints upon a virgin snow
That ancient sunrise will soon descend
So let's start over with no means to an end
Just in love and out of hope and a closed hand, full of friends
Yeah, well, livin' was alright but I was dead in the water
Couldn't see it in its light, I couldn't kneel in its altar
All I wanted was to tear it right down to the ground
But I'm feeling alright now, yeah, I'm feeling alright
Every morning when the coffee's on
And I rediscover that color in your eyes, in its gold and its bronze
With the recitations of the parish poets popping on our scrolls
Yeah, well, I was alright but I was dead in the water
Could see it's light, I couldn't kneel in its altar
All I wanted was a turn right down to the promising
Through this fleeting culture
And hide away from wolves and the vultures
All they wanted was to tear me right down to the ground
Oh, I'm feeling alright, I am now, yeah, I'm feeling alright
In the recitations of the parish poets
In the buildings, in the burrows, in the locked boats
I will find my means to an end
With an open heart in hold and a closed hand, full of friends
In the recitations of the parish poets
In the buildings, in the burrows, in the locked boats
I will find my means to an end
With an open heart in hold and a closed hand, full of friends
In the recitations of the parish poets
In the buildings, in the burrows, in the locked boats
I will find my means to an end
With an open heart in hold and a closed hand, full of friends
In the recitations of the parish poets
In the buildings, in the burrows, in the locked boats
I will find my means to an end
With an open heart in hold and a closed hand, full of friends

Holy shit!! How awesome. YouTube actually made a GREAT recommendation! Dude you're awesome!
Absolutely love this song. This is all anyone could ask for.
Thank you.
What is it with Irish people and water? First Hozier with his submerged album covers, and now Foy Vance with this. The Irish must have a deep connection to the water xD
Glorious, real music! Can listen to his songs over and over again, no problem..
Love his voice and he is so beautiful ❤🎶🎤👍
Absolutely stunning song!!!!
guy's an amazing artist....luv um!
Every time I look up lyrics they say "and it stank from the feet of its culture"... Doesn't he say it "sank from the feet of it's culture?"
Awesome song Foy Vance!
Sargento brought me here.
YAAAASSSSSSSS! I hear you!
this has to have inspired Ed sheeran's Castle on a Hill.
I LOVE THIS. Foy Vance is a treasure! What a talent!
Sargento brought me here.
living life in the edge with a closed hand,full of friends is a good advice

Impressive piece of songwriting. Beautifully arranged, smart changes, fabulous dynamics.

"Just before I go"... underrated film actually had a very beautiful message, and an equally powerful soundtrack.

Beautiful song, thanks to "Just before i go".
His daughter is my best friend and the piano he is playing in this is now in his back garden !
+Adara Plunkett Are you being serious? So awesome! My mate would kill for that ha ha ha
I would kill for that! Sweet :)
I wanna write with him. I'm really good. Hook it up Adara. I'll make u proud,promise!
What a stun video lyric and your tone. Wish everyone should enjoy this more.
Foy Vance and Vance Joy, similar names make me confuse sometime. lol
I really, really like this song.
Can someone be so kind as to recommend me some similar artists?
+Bob 21 Jamie Lawson
ed sheeran is his friend and has similar songwriting skills
Ed Sheeran's Castle on a Hill is a direct rip off....
David Gray and Damien Rice 👍🏻
check out David ford
How is it possible that this song has only 95 thousand views? This is a fantastic song!
And he is not even all the popular here in his hometown, Ireland!!!
my dad is in this video at 0:15 !

Just Before I Go brought me here *: )*
Reminds me of classic David Gray material...

Reminds me of Tom Hardy in the film Bronson!
best song & voice I've heard in years, total masterpiece

Lovely song. Definitely one to look out for. Out wee country norn iron is full of talent. The only thing I'm not sure about is smoking in videos. It may be unique but that's cause its not cool anymore.

Great! The mustache is awesome, but he kinda looks like the creeper from that movie Ever After....
Wow. Just yes. Yes everything. I'm so excited about Foy and what he's doing now and what he'll do in the future.
That's how you know you've got a great artist, dudes.

Everything about Foy is amazing! He has been around for a long time. If you love this which you clearly must look for his other fabulous music. You will not be disappointed. He is the REAL deal! ♥ Love him!
