Dream It up Songtext

von Sydney Wayser

When my love said to me
Meet me down by the gallow tree
For it's sad news I bring
About this old town and all that it's offering
Some say troubles abound
Some day soon they're gonna pull the old town down

One day we'll return here,
When the Belfast Child sings again

Brothers, sisters where are you now
As I look for you right through the crowd
All my life here I've spent
With my faith in God, the Church and the Government
But there's sadness abound
Some day soon they're gonna pull the old town down

Come back people, you've been gone a while
And the war is raging, in the Emerald Isle

The streets are empty, the streets are cold
Won't you come on home, won't you come on home

The streets are empty
Life goes on
