Thomas Itty - Crosshaven Cork

Crosshaven Cork
Lovely little village in the Emerald Isle
So nice
Flew in from New York
Took a three-hour ride from Dublin
Through the City of Cork
Made one pit stop
Traveled through winding roads
To reach your house
By the sea
Like I promised
In Crosshaven Cork

Crosshaven Cork
I stood at the edge of a cliff
Looking out
I saw an Ocean Liner
Passing on by as I watched through a looking glass
I watched it pass
I was still in shock
Walked to the beach
And through the quaint streets
Back to Beaumont East
Your house
In Crosshaven Cork

I didn't come here for the view
I didn't come for the Irish stew
Or a glass of Guinness at Cronin's bar
Or to meet the fine folks here
From near and far

Crosshaven Cork
Lent my shoulders for
His last walk
Cried a lot inside
Read from Ecclesiastes
There is a time
Then we buried my brother
In the graveyard facing the sea
What will be will be
Now you will always be a part of me
Crosshaven Cork
