I remember trips to Belfast On a train that hugs the coast
The fields turn quickly into golf course
The golf course just as fast to fields
It was a callow boast, I'll grant you To know it all when we knew none Those days we walked the streets of Belfast Like our kingdom come had come ♪ I think of home, I often do You gotta know I love you now In this light, how could I not? I think of us, just silly kids I bet we thought we'd never age And if we did we'd never dare say
And I remember trips to Derry On the old car's freezing seats ♪ And I know Fountain Street in winter My grandma's laugh, the greatest noise ♪ It's sure been harder since she left us
And none of us have been the same But the light she left is endless And I still see her every day ♪ I think of home, I often do You gotta know I love you now In this light, how could I not? I think of us, just silly kids I bet we thought we'd never age And if we did we'd never dare say I remember trips through Ireland One caravan, two dogs, the sky My father yelling points of interest Us naughty kids just rolled our eyes ♪ The punched out teeth of Irish history Mistakes were made, let's leave it there ♪ But there's one thing we can all agree on There's beauty north, south, east, and west ♪ There's beauty north, south, east, and west I think of home, I often do You gotta know I love you now In this light, how could I not? I think of us, just silly kids
I bet we thought we'd never age And if we did we'd never dare say I think of home, I often do You gotta know I love you now In this light, how could I not? I think of us, just silly kids ♪ I bet we thought we'd never age And if we did we'd never dare say
