Lyrics

Blood was thicker than water where you came from
And if it hurt bad it was real
And so to grow up in the house that you built
I had to become like steel
You taught us to read and you taught us to write
And you taught us to claim what we know
And you taught us that the scariest thing of all
Is a man lettin his feelings show
And if I could walk you through
The things you've ruined with what you had to say
If I could walk you through
My heart a room you'd bow your head to pray
One day
You over and over told me how they came
And the ocean that so young they braved
And you told me of houses they cleaned and of families
For which they selflessly slaved
And you worked so that I wouldn't have to do that
You worked so that I'd be okay
And stubborn I drove on back to that ocean
And for families I slaved away
And if I could walk you through
The things I've ruined with what I had to say
If I could walk you through your heart a room
I'd bow my head to pray
One day
One day
One day I'd say to you
I don't get why we say what we do
But if I'm not enough old man, that's tough
cuz I am made of you brave and true
So for you I'll name the women that came
Anne, Bridget, Marie Malone
And the ocean that called to those girls like me
Who never forgot their home
Breaking away at so young an age
In search of a life that was fair
And the American granddaughter singing
With the Irish sea in her hair
If we could walk on through
The things we've ruined
With what we had to say
If we could all walk on through
Our hearts a room we'd bow our head to pray
One day
One day
When the sons become fathers
Fathers become sons of the great mystery up above
And they fall to their knees and they see, all along
"All we meant to do was love"
