lyrics

I walked the crooked road past Clonakilty Bay
Trying to straighten out my wonder
The cows were in the heather, and the crows were in the hay
And the road wound on forever.

Past the stone walls of Ireland
Stitched into the land
Like patterns woven in the wool
From when the world was made by hand
This world was made by hand.

Trains and planes and restaurants are where we live alone
Home is where we travel the world over
See all the happy couples cradling their phones
A thousand miles between them in their hands.

While the stone walls of Ireland
Lay stitched into the land
Patterns woven in the wool
From when the world was made by hand
This world was made by hand.

Sometimes the road you walk runs straight into a wall
So you stop and smell the clover
Lean your back against the rocks, and watch the soft light fall
And wonder if there’s any place but here.

By the stone walls of Ireland
Stitched into the land
Patterns woven in the wool
From when the world was made by hand
This world was made by hand.
