Belfast Child by Simple Minds


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 that it's offering

Some say troubles abound

Some day 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 for you right through the crowd

All my life here i've spent

With my faith in god the church and the government

Some say troubles abound

Some day 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 billy won't you come on home?

Come back mary 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 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

That's flesh and blood man that's flesh and blood

All the girls are crying but all's not lost

 

The streets are empty the streets are cold

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

When the belfast child sings again
