Staring out, the traffic’s loud

The boilers on the blink and it’s so loud that i can’t think

Figuring it out alone, it’s the simple things i miss the most

The turf fire warming up my back

I’m drinking stout with my dad

My mother takes a break from letting us both drive her mad

You can’t buy it, when you’re out alone

Try to deny it, you’re missing home again. Home again

I grew stubble now and i worry about

How time’s ticking on. Did I drop the ball?

Though i know i’m not alone, it’s simple things i miss the most

The Swilly wind that nips my neck all wrapped up on the shore

I’m with my little cousins, they’re not children anymore

You can’t buy it when you’re out alone, try to deny it, you’re missing home again.

Things move in inches around here. I know it’s not the same

And I love it all regardless, they’re still talking Mike and Liam

This coastal town’s a haven, it’s current draws you in

I’ve been away for too long, they’ve been here through thick and thin.

You can’t buy it when you’re out alone, try to deny it, you’re glad you’re home again.
