Marie Ewing - Goodbye Killarney

Goodbye Killarney, see you in a while
Oh, goodbye Killarney, my eleventh child
Oh, farewell to times and running tides
The circling seabirds cry
Oh to me
You are too me my pride

Farewell winds of north and south
West and Eastern bound
You turn and spin me like a thistle down
Oh farewell ocean frets
You pulling swirling churning depths
You take me down
You set me down
Me down

Goodbye Killarney, see you in a while
Oh, goodbye Killarney, my eleventh child
Oh, farewell to times and running tides
The circling seabirds cry
Oh to me
You are too me my pride

Sounds of laughter carried on
The carefree summer air
Counting all of ten
A joyful prayer
Oh sandy travellers, footprint patterns
Following free
Dancing dreams
Or so it seems
To me

Goodbye Killarney, see you in a while
Oh, goodbye Killarney, my eleventh child
Oh, farewell to times and running tides
The circling seabirds cry
Oh to me
You are too me my pride

I'll return again to sleep beneath your southern skies
And you will shore my sadness when I cry
Oh waves a crashing strong
You'll rip and cast away the wrong
All for me
All for me
For me

Goodbye Killarney, see you in a while
Oh, goodbye Killarney, my eleventh child
Oh, farewell to times and running tides
The circling seabirds cry
Oh to me
You are too me my pride
Oh to me
You are too me my pride
