Lyrics for Ireland by Dar Williams:
| | | Artist: | Dar Williams |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Ireland | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 103 | | | | Lyrics: | When the morning mist is rising
And the Hudson nearly blue
With the branches all a'
blowing
And the sun comes sifting through
I stare with homesick wonder
For my thoughts
all turn to you
And my memory fills with deeper greens and blues
And Ireland is always in
the news
I called your struggle useless
And my home a battlefield
And I cursed the
hope of moving
I left you all behind me
Crying that your fate was sealed
But the anger
not the love here I did lose
And Ireland is always in the news
But now I'm having
nightmares
For the picture will not fade
Of one hundred black umbrellas
Shining in a
great parade
I guess I had it coming
It's a cold hard price I paid
For yes I did
choose
To find my brother's funeral in the news
So don't you get your hopes up
But
I think I'm coming home
For maybe there'll be freedom
With one more shoulder to that
stone
I may end up a martyr
But I will not end alone
Oh your are a family that I can't
refuse
Oh Ireland you're dying in the news | | | | Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link | |
