Collection of Irish Song Lyrics
Clare to Here
There's four who share this room
And we work hard for the crack.
Sleeping late on Sundays
And we never got to Mass.
CHORUS
It's a long way from Clare to here,
It's a long way from Clare to here,
It's a long long way
It gets further by the day
It's a long long way from Clare to here.
When Friday comes around
Eddy''s only into fighting.
My mom would like a letter home
But I'm too tired for writing. CHORUS
It almost breaks my heart
When I think of Josephine
I told her I'd be coming home
With my pockets full of green. CHORUS
The only time I feel alright
Is when I'm into drinking.
It can sort of ease the pain of it
And it levels out my thinking. CHORUS
I sometimes hear a fiddle play
Or maybe it's a notion.
I dream I see white horses dance
Upon that other ocean. CHORUS
