ciaran lavery - left for america lyrics
[verse 1]
lay me on my back a little
an’ put my hat on my head
cause i want to sleep out with the stars
not in the dark with the dead
when i’m ready i’ll give you the sign
you can gather me up like a quilt
tell my mother i tried, tell my cousin i lied
i was holding your hand out of guilt
[chorus]
they never paid my way – i bought it
i never stole your heart – i sought it
i never knew my place anyway
they never paid my way – i bought it
i never stole your heart – i sought it
i never knew my place anyway
[outro]
you cover me up with a thousand whispers
you shuffle me into the night
whistle and hum to the traffic rum, calling us closer to the edge of the light
tell me tales that win my faith and be my champion of dreams
i don’t want to forget the day i left for america and things came apart at the seams
[chorus]
they never paid my way – i bought it
i never stole your heart – i sought it
i never knew my place anyway
they never paid my way – i bought it
i never stole your heart – i sought it
i never knew my place anyway
they never paid my way – i bought it
i never stole your heart – i sought it
i never knew my place anyway
they never paid my way – i bought it
i never stole your heart – i sought it
i never knew my place anyway
