Corrs - Song For Ireland Lyrics
Walking all the dayNear tall towers where falcons build their nestsSilver winged they flyThey know the call for freedom in their breastsSaw Black Head against the skyWith twisted rocks that run down to the seaLiving on your western shoreSaw summer sunsets, asked for moreI stood by your Atlantic SeaAnd sang a song for IrelandTalking all the dayWith true friends who try to make you stayTelling jokes and newsSinging songs to pass the night awayWatched the galway salmon runLike silver dancing, darting in the sunLiving on your western shoreSaw summer sunsets, asked for moreI stood by your Atlantic SeaAnd sang a song for IrelandDrinking all the dayIn old pubs where fiddlers love to playSomeone touched the bowHe played a reel that seems so fine and gayI stood on dingle beach and castIn wild foam we found Atlantic bassLiving on your western shoreSaw summer sunsets, asked for moreI stood by your Atlantic SeaAnd sang a song for IrelandDreaming in the nightI saw a land where no-man had to fightWaking in your dawnI saw you crying in the morning lightLying where the falcons flyThey twist and turn all in your air-blue skyLiving on your western shoreSaw summer sunsets, asked for moreI stood by your Atlantic SeaAnd I sang a song for Ireland
