Ireland's a dream
|
Of hope for what the day will bring
|
The land and the sea
|
Is what I've come to trust
|
All that I am
|
Is telling me I should not go
|
And all that I know
|
Is they're telling me I must
|
|
Reasons to leave
|
Are money and finding better work
|
Reasons to stay
|
Are music and love
|
Reasons to leave
|
Are fortune and fame for what it's worth
|
The reason to stay
|
Is heaven on earth
|
|
My brothers are ten
|
And sisters I have five
|
Four to one bed
|
Is room enough to grow
|
All that we are
|
Is all that I have ever known
|
And all that I have
|
Will be here when I'm gone
|
|
I've heard about work up in Boston
|
Laying tracks down to San Augustine
|
Sometimes with an eye for New Zealand
|
I lean
|
