Dubliners - The Town I Loved So Well слова песни
In my memory I will always seethe town that I have loved so wellwhere our school played ball by the gasyard walland we laughed through the smoke and the smell.Going home in the rain running up the dark lanepast the jail and down behind the fountainThose were happy days in so many many waysin the town I have loves so well.In the early morning the shirt-factory horncalled women from Craigeen the Moor and the Bogwhile the man on the dole played the mother`s rolefed the children and then trained the dogs.And when times got rough there was just about enoughbut they saw it through without complainingfor deep inside was a burning pridefor the town I loved so well.There was music there in the Derry airlike a language that we could all understandI remember the day when I earned my first payas I played in the small pick-up band.There I spent my youth and to tell you the truthI was sad to leave it all behind mefor I`d learned `bout life and I`ve found me a wifein the town I loved so well.But when I returned how my eyes have burnedto see how a town could be brought ti its kneesby the armered cars and the bombed-out barsand the gas that hangs on to every breathe.Now the army`s installed by that old gasyard walland the damned barbwire gets high and higherwith their tanks and their bombs, oh my god what have they doneto the town I loved so well.Now the music`s gone but I still carry onfor their spirit`s been gone but never brokenthey will not forget for their hearts are all seton tomorrow and peace once again.For what`s done is done and what`s won is wonand what`s lost is lost and gone foreverI can only pray for a bright brand-new dayto the town I lived so well.
