Текст песни Belfast Child - Loyal Cover

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 it's suffering
Some say troubles abound
Someday 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 through, right through the crowd
All my life here I've spent
With my faith in God and church and the government
Some say troubles abound
Someday soon they're gonna pull the old town down
One day we'll return here

When the Belfast Child sings again

When the Belfast Child sings again

So come back people
Won't you come on home?

Come back people
You've been away so long
The streets are empty
And your mother's gone
The girls are crying
It's been oh so long
And your father's calling
Come on, come on home
Won't you come on home?
Come on home

Come back people
You've been gone a while
And the war is raging
Through the emerald isle
There's flesh and blood
There's flesh and bone
And all the girls are crying
They're lost my love

Well the streets are empty
And life goes on
Won't you come on home?
Come on home
The streets are empty
Life goes on

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