SAILING HOME
(Dermot O'Brien)

I'm a liberty boy that I'll never deny
And I love the old town I was born in
And I rue the day that I sailed away
On gray November morning

Me beloved shared a tear as stood by the pier
But I told her had to be going
She's my treasure and pearl
She's my own darling girl
But my wild oats I have to be sowing

[Chorus]
I'm sailing home to Dublin's city
To the one that is waiting for me there
Home again to Dublin's city
Oh how Im longing to be there

I've seen all the sights of this great world delights
And I sailed from Vancouver to Dover
I've hunted the whale and weathered the gael
Now my roving days are all over

For I miss Moore Street smell and the auld Liffey swell
And the pigeon house lights in the evening
On Sandymount strand where we walked hand in hand
And we watched while the mailboat was leaving

It is!

thank you, Peter
