1988, I walked into a record store in Colorado Springs. They were playing Watermark. I've listened to every one of her songs since then. A beautiful woman who can bring a grown man to tears is an angel. She is magnificent, a treasure, and an awakening into real music.
Yea I totally agree, Another woman that does that to me with so much emotion is Kate Bush I live near where Kate Bush lived in Kent in Welling-I live near Dartford/Bexleyheath way Where you from Jim?
I had a crush on her. I thought I'd go to Ireland and sit at the pub near her house hoping for a chance encounter. Another guy beat me to it. He got arested and beaten up for being a stalker.
This is the saddest yet most beautiful song I've ever heard. To me it speaks of a personal awakening through a series of memories that suddenly invade you in adulthood one day, when the evening falls. You travel through your mind to your parents home... They are long gone now and you feel their presence in every room. The cheer and playfulness in the morning when you were just a child and woke them in bed... The smell of her perfume, the sound of their voice, the feeling of being protected and loved. Moments lost in time like tears in the rain but... always treasured in your memory. Life is sad and even your most loved ones pass away even though they will always be in that house, in your memories. Memories you left behind but you will never ever let go because they are part of your identity. I am home, I know the way. They will always be my northern star, my guiding light. Thank you, mom and dad.
Except my childhood was filled with violent abuse and neglect at the hands of my mother... but it didn’t stop me searching... When this song came out, I found my long lost Aunt... I hoped to find something in her that mother didn’t have... I was grown up by then, so the offer was different... To me, this song takes me back to a lost childhood, but what could have been, what I would have liked it to have been...
Growing up I’d play this song while sitting at my fathers office chair and turn on his desk fan and put my face right into its breeze with my eyes closed imaging I was on the front of a small boat flying across a lake with mountains and jungle all around. Every once in a while I’ll still do it just to relive those memories.
Enya is a real and very professional singer, and a very elegant woman. Her singing is quiet, calm and pure, far from fame and money, this is very precious, something that current young singers lack. I love her so much！She is my role model!!
Where is the new generation ? Does anybody listen to this kind of music anymore?? Im 27 and people tend to make fun of me listening to this kind of music
Dear Enya, I do not know how many times your songs have saved me, calmed me down, and let me take a rest. You heal me. I believe I am not the only one who feels this way. I am so happy to get to know your songs. Thank you.
I discovered this song in my 1st semester of college when my mom was diagnosed with terminal cancer after my dad battled cancer 2 years before and went into commission. Used to listen to Watermark, Fumbling Towards Ecstasy, and Love Deluxe on the hour long bus ride to school and back everyday. It used to take me away for a bit, out of my thoughts and into my feelings to digest everything I was going through and happening around me. Honest to say music and this song saved me. ❤
This song is so hauntingly beautiful, I can't stand it, and I mean that in a good way. I lost someone I loved very much almost 20 years ago now, and just recently for some reason the memory of her passing has been tormenting me. I'd like to dedicate this song to the memory of my would-be wife, Tanya Rose, taken way too soon.
Yes, first time listening to enya and this is definitely going to get me through college with all the essays piling up and everything. I just firget it when i listen to this type of music.
So beautiful 😊 This was my mother's favourite piece of music. She always was in a melancholic mood while hearing this song, sometimes she was crying because of all the personal miseries ...
not to take away from it, I love her art and her style (more so her instrumental pieces such as _Watermark_ ) but she uses a digital technique in post production that superposes many, many layers of her singing, her chorus, etc., each with a slight delay to the next so to create this "echo" effect that is so characteristic of her tracks. It's beautiful and different but it means it isn't all in her singing per se.
You know the feeling when you're listening to music, just random songs, one after the other, you work on your PC, posting on Facebook etc., and then a song like this comes, and suddenly you're in a totally different place, you stop and you let yourself taken by the amazing music and voice. It's such a spiritual feeling.
Enya: "Evening Falls is, believe it or not, a ghost story, and it's about this lady who had kept dreaming about a particular house, and she was in America, and years later she and her husband were retiring in England, and she comes across the house that she's been dreaming about, and when she goes up to have a look, the maid and the butler are very cold towards her, and very frightened of her, and she asks why, and they say that she has been walking around this house every night as she was dreaming about it. And it was Roma, on hearing the melody I had written, said this was perfect for the song Evening Falls..." MuchMusic TV Interview, 1988
When the evening falls And the daylight is fading, From within me calls Could it be I am sleeping? For a moment I stray, Then it holds me completely Close to home - I cannot say Close to home feeling so far away As I walk the room there before me a shadow From another world, where no other can follow Carry me to my own, to where I can cross over Close to home - I cannot say Close to home feeling so far away Forever searching; never right, I am lost in oceans of night. Forever hoping I can find memories Those memories I left behind Even though I leave will I go on believing That this time is real - am I lost in this feeling? Like a child passing through, Never knowing the reason I am home - I know the way I am home - feeling oh, so far away
When the evening falls And the daylight is fading From within me calls Could it be I am sleeping? For a moment I stray Then it holds me completely Close to home, I cannot say Close to home, feeling so far away As I walk the room There before me a shadow From another world Where no other can follow Carry me to my own To where I can cross over, Close to home, I cannot say Close to home, feeling so far away Forever searching, never right I am lost in oceans of night Forever hoping I can find memories Those memories I left behind Even though I leave Will I go on believing That this time is real Am I lost in this feeling? Like a child passing through Never knowing the reason I am home, I know the way I am home, feeling oh, so far away
This song really fits for me. Im 17 and we moved away from our "home" 7 years ago and left a lot of memories behind. I've been extremely homesick for years and every time I go back to see it I feel very far away. There aren't enough words to express how beautiful this song is to me.
I know it's about a ghost story, but I cannot skip to come to tears every time I listen to this. I feel it's one of the most beautiful and saddest songs I've heard
I think Enya went through enlightenment/awakening. The song tells deep spiritual truth and reminds us, that we are still at home and we‘ve never left, heaven is always here. Our pure spirit knows…
"When the evening falls And the daylight is fading From within me calls Could it be I am sleeping? For a moment I stray Then it holds me completely Close to home, I cannot say Close to home, feeling so far away" Simply beautifull...
It's weird how such a sad song brings so much peace. I feel it as an adult that moved so quickly away from childhood. Spending the last couple decades away from home, whatever that is. I really don't know. Close to home and so far away. Someday I hope to figure this out.
That applies to me, too. Not always, of course, but often. My idea is that it's like that because it gets one to realize how deeply far away our human condition is from God's (meaning the "Principle of Life and Creation"). . Just to sum it up in a few words..
Such a lovely Melancholic voice, not to mention the fact that even when autotune became available to use never once has it tainted her voice in any her songs.
By the gods I am now and always have been the same age as Enya, still struck by her beauty in music and person. Truly a gift sent from the gods. Bless you Enya, you have carried me through the good and the bad, and never failed. Thanks.
I lost 6 close family members inside that awful year of 1988 and when this song was released I kind of found that it described most of the feelings of the constant attending funerals and trying to pull myself up from the emotional quagmire and at the same time trying to stay positive and carry on. Especially the words 'I am lost in oceans of night' still to this day are the best words to describe what I felt at the time and I can't listen to this song without revisiting those feelings. It's truly a great song with very deep lyrics.
I think part of the reason why I love Enya's music is that it reminds me of my Catholic school days and going to church and listening to the choir sing...it's very uplifting...maybe I need to go back~
after 20 years from the moment when i first heard this magnificent song, i am still petrified, enchanted, mesmerized and in painfully sweet tears every time i hear it.
Wonderful Enya, I used to drive through Norfolk alone just heading for the coast and playing Enya in my car, it could not have been any more pertfect than that !! It always spoke to something deep inside of me... Barry Mulcahy
My father passed away 5 years ago. I was listening to this song yesterday and wrote some words to my dad on FB, they just flowed. Enya is lady with an amazing voice.
The way I feel about this masterpiece is that we come to earth, get lost wandering the pleasure paths, learn hard lessons of awakening, and eventually find the path that leads back to the luminous realms, which is the eventual heritage of all.
the beauty of the melody and the deep and meaningful lyrics of this song and her angelic voice truly sends your soul into a state of complete peace and tranquility, for me its about your soul finding its way home and the transition from one world to another, truly legendary , be at peace with yourself and the rest will come naturally

This woman's voice is straight from heaven!!!!! She is what I Invision angels looking like and sounding like!!!! I'd give anything to see and hear her in person!!!!
This song is one of my favorites. I used to play this album when I drove 18 wheeler OTR. It was the best way to calm my nerves in hazardous driving conditions. Put this CD on and I could drive through anything!
I remember when I bought this CD in 1989 when it came out. This song was one of the ones I would sleep to. I swear, it is talking about the ghost of a child or some soul still searching for answers as to why it was forced to leave the physical earth and cross into an afterlife.
Incredibilmente commovente e bellissima. Mi sembra di tornare nella casa dei miei nonni dove mi sentivo amato e protetto. I nostri cari rimangono accanto a noi e ci confortano nei momenti difficili. Quando penso a quella casa risento le loro voci, e nelle natici c'è l'odore delle stanze e delle pietanze che preparavano e che hanno ancora nella nostra memoria il gusto più buono che abbiamo assaporato, perché avevano un ingrediente speciale... il loro amore... che ora ci manca lasciandoci un enorme vuoto...
I ricordi sono il tesoro più prezioso che abbiamo . Per mia fortuna ho scoperto che la morte non esiste e che chi abbiamo amato è accanto a noi e non dobbiamo mai smettere di parlare con chi non c'è più nel piano fisico . L'amore è la forza che genera e tiene vita all'intero universo
If more people would look past the world’s problems like the COVID-19 virus and focus on what’s going on in front of them we can heal ourselves Thank you Enya I will always love you!

Yea I totally agree, Another woman that does that to me with so much emotion is Kate Bush
I live near where Kate Bush lived in Kent in Welling-I live near Dartford/Bexleyheath way
Where you from Jim?
He’s from the state and I agree, some of the most beautiful music from one of the beautiful voices!
Her song 'May It Be' from Lord of the Rings gets me every time.
I had a crush on her. I thought I'd go to Ireland and sit at the pub near her house hoping for a chance encounter. Another guy beat me to it. He got arested and beaten up for being a stalker.
Is your name really Jim Crow?
This is the saddest yet most beautiful song I've ever heard. To me it speaks of a personal awakening through a series of memories that suddenly invade you in adulthood one day, when the evening falls. You travel through your mind to your parents home...

Beautiful, makes me think of my mom and grandparents. Forever their in my heart and soul
You expressed it well.. yes for sure👍
Thank you Lord for this angel on earth
Enya is one of a kind. Her music will probably be listened to for decades, if not centuries to come ❤
She has a sister whose music and voice are equally beautiful.
Enya used to in Clannad right?

Well it's already been decades, so here's to centuries!

Thank you Enya for saving me from depression.❤

This song always takes me to the time when and where I never existed.....

Especially this time of year when many of us are locked in winters icy grip. I love her song How can I keep from singing. 💕💕
Her music helped me keep calm and at peace during my middle school years.
Yes, first time listening to enya and this is definitely going to get me through college with all the essays piling up and everything. I just firget it when i listen to this type of music.
Brings more memories beautiful ones to me enya is the best i listened to her when i was 21 and now am 39❤
I love all her songs my mommy died four years ago Enya and Jesus has helped me through this ❤
This masterpiece is one of my all-time faves. It's deep and haunting, but yet, peaceful.
Perfectly said...
Indeed
I couldn’t agree more. Absolutely beautiful!
A touch of the past
I feel connected to family
I know! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!! ALWAYS BEEN MY FAVOURITE!!!❤💗❤💕😇
I am convinced that this woman's voice is what angels sound like
Makes me homesick for a home that I never had.
Along with "Exile", "The Celts" and "Carribbean Blue", this is probably one of my most favorite compositions of hers.
So beautiful 😊
This was my mother's favourite piece of music. She always was in a melancholic mood while hearing this song, sometimes she was crying because of all the personal miseries ...
This song is an absolute masterpiece, unbelievable how someone can sing so beautifully

Greetings from Greece
When the evening falls
And the daylight is fading,
From within me calls
Could it be I am sleeping?
For a moment I stray,
Then it holds me completely
Close to home - I cannot say
Close to home feeling so far away
As I walk the room there before me a shadow
From another world, where no other can follow
Carry me to my own, to where I can cross over
Close to home - I cannot say
Close to home feeling so far away
Forever searching; never right,
I am lost in oceans of night.
Forever hoping I can find memories
Those memories I left behind
Even though I leave will I go on believing
That this time is real - am I lost in this feeling?
Like a child passing through,
Never knowing the reason
I am home - I know the way
I am home - feeling oh, so far away
Magic carpet ride
Thanks for the lirics
thankyou ~
Thank you
Thanks🌹🕯️
I love this song. It reminds me so much of my Great Auntie Kate, who I looked after when she was ill. We had this played at her funeral.
ここ3ヶ月ほど、ハイエースのなかでは、これを聴いてる。
この曲が含まれるアルバムを。
中でもこの曲に癒される。
ささくれだった気持ちに沁みてくる。
もう決して戻らない過去のことなど、普段思い出しもしないような事柄やその時の感情に包まれる。
現実のしんどさも、やがて過ぎ去る。
ま、ビール飲んで、スポーツニュース見て寝よ、と思えてくる。
When the evening falls
And the daylight is fading
From within me calls
Could it be I am sleeping?
For a moment I stray
Then it holds me completely
Close to home, I cannot say
Close to home, feeling so far away

There before me a shadow
From another world
Where no other can follow
Carry me to my own
To where I can cross over,
Close to home, I cannot say
Close to home, feeling so far away
Forever searching, never right
I am lost in oceans of night
Forever hoping I can find memories

Will I go on believing
That this time is real
Am I lost in this feeling?

And now you're 27...hope life is good to you!!
Hope you're doing well now.
What place did you call home?
Your 29 now, how are you doing
I know it's about a ghost story, but I cannot skip to come to tears every time I listen to this. I feel it's one of the most beautiful and saddest songs I've heard
I agree 100%. And the song "Exile" from her. Just otherworldly in a way...
Yes indeed.

this has to be the most beautiful yet most painful song ever. Every time I hear this it brings me to tears...

Close to home, yet so far away. Brings tears to any eye, a lump in the throat for all those who have a heart.
I think part of the reason why I love Enya's music is that it reminds me of my Catholic school days and going to church and listening to the choir sing...it's very uplifting...maybe I need to go back~
after 20 years from the moment when i first heard this magnificent song, i am still petrified, enchanted, mesmerized and in painfully sweet tears every time i hear it.
This has always been one of Enya's saddest song in my opinion... 😭
Its 2024, who is all still listening to this song?
Yes. 28.6.2024 ❤

Incredibilmente commovente e bellissima. Mi sembra di tornare nella casa dei miei nonni dove mi sentivo amato e protetto. I nostri cari rimangono accanto a noi e ci confortano nei momenti difficili. Quando penso a quella casa risento le loro voci, e nelle natici c'è l'odore delle stanze e delle pietanze che preparavano e che hanno ancora nella nostra memoria il gusto più buono che abbiamo assaporato, perché avevano un ingrediente speciale... il loro amore... che ora ci manca lasciandoci un enorme vuoto...
I ricordi sono il tesoro più prezioso che abbiamo . Per mia fortuna ho scoperto che la morte non esiste e che chi abbiamo amato è accanto a noi e non dobbiamo mai smettere di parlare con chi non c'è più nel piano fisico . L'amore è la forza che genera e tiene vita all'intero universo
Enya's vocals here are brilliant!
The organ at 2:32 feels like a homecoming. 🌙
It would be hard to pick the most haunting track
from Enya... but _Evening Falls..._ tops my list!!
