Well, I got on a boat
with a bag full of clothes outside Belfast
The whole family had came
to wave me away the first of our lads
Sure, I’ll book a flight home
if I feel that this move isn’t working
But that’s just a lie
That I say sometimes keep on going
Cause It’s only a few miles apart
But the distance That tears up my heart
When I think of back home, Ireland
Cause in the big city life,
you can stay out all night until morning
And the bonds that you mold
as your future unfolds without warning
Sure I was only 18
I’m allowed to be free look where I’ve been
And although im away
I’ll still call everyday don’t you worry
Cause It’s only a few miles apart
But the distance That tears up my heart
When I think of back home, Ireland
Cause It’s only a few miles apart
But the distance That tears up my heart
When I think of back home, Ireland
When I think of home
When I Think Of Home, Ireland
Ireland
