Islander (Acoustic Session)

As the years draw

Lines over my face

Wherever they draw their lines

You'll still be the same place

Now I've heard you called

Many and more names

But your name is on the wind

The leaves and the wood grain

It's home, home, home

Mile after mile I'll push these feet

Still I can feel it pulling me

If Eireann is calling I would come running

I would come running

Sometimes I hear her when she speaks

She says, "If you love me then why did you leave?"

It's 'cause I've got more to see

But I'll always be an Islander

Now I go to the coast

Cause that's where I'm home the most

As crazy as it may seem

The edge always centred me

But whether it's wave on rock

Still water at Glendalough

Sieve League ripping through the sky

The Gaps or the Glens I see when I close my eyes

I'm home, home, home

Mile after mile I'll push these feet

Still I can feel it pulling me

If Eireann is calling I would come running

I would come running

Sometimes I hear her when she speaks

She says, "If you love me then why did you leave?"

It's 'cause I've got more to see

But I'll always be an Islander

(I would come running)

I'll always be an Islander

(I would come running, I would come running)

Yea I've got more to see

But I'll always be an Islander
