Want To Come Back 

I come from where the people are always good fun
And times can be hard, for the work is still done
There's hills and there's mountains and their
winding rocky roads
To see the River Shannon change direction as
it flows

There's many a time I've traveled so far far away
And when I come home, I still feel I want to stay
Cause all the things I'm used to will never be the
same
But I want to come back again and again.

Whenever you get the time to think about your
home
It will be because you're feeling all alone
You've got to be prepared to satisfy your mind
And take yourself back to where you were a child.

That island of my dreams I've been so close to
day by day
The harvester and bomber are all out saving the
hay
Christmas time and New Year's Eve is that so far
away
Where only getting ready for the grand
St. Patrick's Day.
