From Clare to Here Songtext
Four who shared this room and
We were caught up in the crack
Sleeping late on Sundays
And we never got to Mass
It′s a long way from Clare to here
It's a long way from Clare to here
It′s a long, long way
It get's further by the day
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
When Friday comes around
We′re only into fighting
My Ma would like a letter home but
I′m too tired for writing
It's a long way from Clare to here
It′s a long way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way
It get′s further by the day
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
It almost breaks my heart
When I think of my family
I told them I′d be coming home with my
Pockets full of green
It's a long way from Clare to here
It's a long way from Clare to here
It′s a long, long way
It get′s further by the day
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
The only time I feel alright
Is when I′m into drinking
It can sort of ease the pain of it and it
Levels out my thinking
It's a long way from Clare to here
It′s a long way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way
It get′s further by the day
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
I sometimes hear the fiddles play,
Maybe it's just a notion
I dream I see white horses dance upon
That other ocean
It′s a long way from Clare to here
It′s a long way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way
It get′s further by the day
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
It′s a long, long way from Clare to here
We were caught up in the crack
Sleeping late on Sundays
And we never got to Mass
It′s a long way from Clare to here
It's a long way from Clare to here
It′s a long, long way
It get's further by the day
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
When Friday comes around
We′re only into fighting
My Ma would like a letter home but
I′m too tired for writing
It's a long way from Clare to here
It′s a long way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way
It get′s further by the day
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
It almost breaks my heart
When I think of my family
I told them I′d be coming home with my
Pockets full of green
It's a long way from Clare to here
It's a long way from Clare to here
It′s a long, long way
It get′s further by the day
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
The only time I feel alright
Is when I′m into drinking
It can sort of ease the pain of it and it
Levels out my thinking
It's a long way from Clare to here
It′s a long way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way
It get′s further by the day
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
I sometimes hear the fiddles play,
Maybe it's just a notion
I dream I see white horses dance upon
That other ocean
It′s a long way from Clare to here
It′s a long way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way
It get′s further by the day
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
It′s a long, long way from Clare to here
