This is the song I play when I'm feeling low about family and friends that have passed away. Mike Scott, Steve Wickham and all the Waterpeople that have played as The Waterboys over the years----Thank you
Great song. there is a great version on the CD Live adventures of ... recorded at Glasto . I was there great gig and great version. A real mystery that has never made it onto a studio album!
OverviewLyricsListen This is a wide world we travel And our paths rarely cross And we do a whole lot of living In between So come and share More than time We'll put our cares Far behind While we sail The ship that never goes to sea Hey It could be months And it could be years Before we find one other Once more standing here And until then my beautiful friend I have a wish for you Many hearts To keep you warm Many guides To speed you through the storm And may the saints and angels wach Over you Hey May the saints and angels watch Over you, hey, hey May the saints and angels watch Over you
God....if there be angels on earth n they be musical.....Mike Scott n his amazing entourage are certainly the messengers........................I adore this song. If I died n went nto heaven... hope I hear this on arrival....better still....every loved one left behind.....ould just learn to adore The Waterboys as I do!!!........From an absolute major fan....(Mean Fiddler Days....ie 1992).....Mike Scott....I applaud you...and the boys of course xxxx)

Absolutely wonderful, been with this band since 1980. See you again in Hull in October 2023 🎵🎵🎵🎵
My personal ALL TIME favorite 💕🕊✨☘️
Mike Scott is a genius and the band sublime
Sharon Shannon with is clear, shining, accordeon is just amazing
Beautiful music - I could listen to this all day and never get tired of it.
i lost me mother on the 2/2 /24 love this song
Sorry about your mom's passing. (Take care and hold on to the good memories)
how come i never heard this before?huh..so so nice
Possibly the best song I have ever heard in my lifetime by the best band the UK have ever produced
Absolutely beautiful...like the old days!
powerful song. gotta love sharon shannon :D
he is one remarkable songwriter.
I will never understand how a collection of simple musical notes and sung words, can reduce me to a blubbering wreck.
This may be my favorite Waterboys song. Just beautiful
I watched this live on TV, took me this long to find it because I didn't know the band!
Beautiful instruments, arrangement, and song. Love it.
Great song. there is a great version on the CD Live adventures of ... recorded at Glasto . I was there great gig and great version. A real mystery that has never made it onto a studio album!
So beautiful xx
Never knew this song. Stumbled upon it. Classic!!!!
Just beautiful. Thanks so much for posting.
(And, please, fix the title!)

I am reading Mike Scott's autobiography Adventures of a Waterboy. Great reading and so very well written.
The most comforting song I know.

Mike Scott and sharon shannon - legends!
I suspect the title is "Saints and Angels." Lovely song.
OverviewLyricsListen
This is a wide world we travel
And our paths rarely cross
And we do a whole lot of living
In between
So come and share
More than time
We'll put our cares
Far behind
While we sail
The ship that never goes to sea
Hey
It could be months
And it could be years
Before we find one other
Once more standing here
And until then my beautiful friend
I have a wish for you
Many hearts
To keep you warm
Many guides
To speed you through the storm
And may the saints and angels wach
Over you
Hey
May the saints and angels watch
Over you, hey, hey
May the saints and angels watch
Over you
great tune
Amazing
