The Fields Of Athenry feat. Petra Haden lyrics
Michael, they have taken you away
For you stole Trevelyn's corn so the young might see the morn
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay
Low lie, the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young man calling
Nothing matters Mary, when you're free
Against the famine and the crown I rebelled, they cut me down
Now you must raise our child with dignity
Low lie, the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
By a lonely harbor wall, she watched the last star falling
As that prison ship sailed out against the sky
For she'll live and hope and pray, for her love in Botany Bay
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
Low lie, the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
Low lie, the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
Michael, they have taken you away
For you stole Trevelyn's corn so the young might see the morn
