Paddy Reilly – Song For Ireland Lyrics
Artist: Paddy Reilly
Song: Song For Ireland
Walking all the day
Near tall towers where falcons build their nests
Silver wings they fly
They know the call of freedom in their breasts
Saw Black Head against the sky
Where twisted rocks they run down to the sea
Living on your western shore
Saw summer sunsets, asked for more
Stood by your Atlantic Sea
And sang a song for Ireland
Talking all the day
With true friends who try to make you stay
Telling jokes and news
Singing songs to while the time away
Watched the Galway salmon run
Like silver dancing, darting in the sun
Living on your western shore
Saw summer sunsets, asked for more
Stood by your Atlantic Sea
And sang a song for Ireland
Drinking all the day
In old pubs where fiddlers love to play
Someone touched the bow
And played a reel that seemed so grand and gay
Stood on Dingle Beach and cast
In wild foam for Atlantic bass
Living on your western shore
Saw summer sunsets, asked for more
Stood by your Atlantic Sea
And sang a song for Ireland
Dreaming in the night
I see a land where no one has to fight
Waking in your dawn
I see you crying in the morning light
Lying where the falcons fly
They twist and turn all in the rare blue sky
Living on your western shore
Saw summer sunsets, asked for more
I stood by your Atlantic sea
And I sang a song for Ireland
