the druids (irl) - the sky over ireland كلمات أغنية

last night the gig was over in the centre of the town
an old man called me over, i could see his drunken frown
he asked how long i’ve been here, if i ever would return
he asked me all about myself and the place that i came from
then he took my hand in his and gentle were his words
i can see the truth in his eyes

he said: ‘i haven’t seen the sky over ireland for over fifty years
i haven’t hеard my mother call me name sincе i came here
even when she passed away, they didn’t let me know
no one left to go back to, this is now my home’
he said: ‘i haven’t seen the sky over ireland for over fifty years’
he said through his tears

he told me of his youth and of a girl that he once loved
how they ran away together many years ago
she had a son already, to his family this brought shame
but he loved them as his own, he gave them both his name
but his fondness for the whiskey kept them on their way
now he dwells upon the past and the light he drew away

he said: ‘i haven’t seen the sky over ireland for over fifty years’
he said through his tears

he finished off his drink and brought the empty to the bar
i watched the people sneer and call him names behind his back
he said ‘they’ll never judge me ’till they’ve worn my shoes’
the room went deathly quiet, and he knew that i knew
and as he said goodnight he planned to walk out in my mind
there but for the grace of god don’t lie
he said: ‘i haven’t seen the sky over ireland for over fifty years
i haven’t heard my mother call me name since i came here
even when she passed away, they didn’t let me know
no one left to go back to, this is now my home’
he said: ‘i haven’t seen the sky over ireland for over fifty years’
he said through his tears
