dave mckendry - belfast lyrics
[verse 1]
tattered tokens taped to telegraph poles
ragged broken, bathed in halogen glow
fallen heroes on the gable walls
my mother’s father drove the cranes those boats were built on
[chorus]
this is my city
tied to the rigging of the past
heads are still spinning
some wanna let go, others hold fast
constant reminder, every street lamp is a mast
so why don’t we all just sail away?
belfast
[verse 2]
built up graveyard over sailortown
shut the [?] and the pat’s bar down
song and laughter filled the nights, but now
only ghosts of notes spill out across the water
[chorus]
this is my city
tied to the rigging of the past
heads are still spinning
some wanna let go, others hold fast
constant reminders, every street lamp is a mast
so why don’t we all just sail away?
belfast
[post-chorus]
oooh
oooh
[bridge]
come all, ye sinners
and give it up
you’re free now
stop giving up
and breathe out
[verse 3]
children born after the violence
upon the shoulders of the giants
where the lagan leaves the island
will grow in homes with coloured bones
and we all know they’ll listen
home of playwrights, poets, painters, kings
beautiful forgotten buried things
in the entries now the echoes ring
tomorrow who could know what words they’ll remember
[outro]
this is my city
this is my city
this is my city
this is my
belfast
