Home to Donegal
All the lights of London are far behind
The thoughts of homeland are crowding my mind
Familiar places come in to view
I see my home now, soon I'll see you
We'll talk to the old folks, how they're getting on
Treat them to late nights, sing a few songs
We'll talk of the neighbors and life in the town
There's so much to tell them of the days fly around
'Cause this is my homeland, the place I was born in
No matter where I roam, it's in my soul
My feet may wander a thousand places
My heart will lead me back home to my Donegal
And then tomorrow, we'll take a walk
Down to St. Marys to a sheltered spot
And we'll kneel and pray there for the ones that have gone
And hope they're proud of, their wandering son
'Cause this is my homeland, the place I was born in
No matter where I roam, it's in my soul
'Cause my feet may wander a thousand places
My heart will lead me back home to my Donegal
It's time when I want you to do us a little favour
If you have a mobile phone down there
We'd love you to get it out of your pockets and turn the lights on
We wanna see all those mobiles with the lights, lightin' all the Marquee in Cork tonight
Come on
Oh, that's the job
If you know, let's hear you sing
This is my homeland, the place I was born in
No matter where I roam, it's in my soul
My feet may wander a thousand places
But my heart will lead me back home to my Donegal
Yes, my heart will lead me back home to my Donegal
Hands in the air
I wrote this little song about a aear ago
And I would love to dedicate it to my family
And to all of you lovely people
And the fans who've travelled to come and see me over the last few years
It means so, so much
The thoughts of homeland are crowding my mind
Familiar places come in to view
I see my home now, soon I'll see you
We'll talk to the old folks, how they're getting on
Treat them to late nights, sing a few songs
We'll talk of the neighbors and life in the town
There's so much to tell them of the days fly around
'Cause this is my homeland, the place I was born in
No matter where I roam, it's in my soul
My feet may wander a thousand places
My heart will lead me back home to my Donegal
And then tomorrow, we'll take a walk
Down to St. Marys to a sheltered spot
And we'll kneel and pray there for the ones that have gone
And hope they're proud of, their wandering son
'Cause this is my homeland, the place I was born in
No matter where I roam, it's in my soul
'Cause my feet may wander a thousand places
My heart will lead me back home to my Donegal
It's time when I want you to do us a little favour
If you have a mobile phone down there
We'd love you to get it out of your pockets and turn the lights on
We wanna see all those mobiles with the lights, lightin' all the Marquee in Cork tonight
Come on
Oh, that's the job
If you know, let's hear you sing
This is my homeland, the place I was born in
No matter where I roam, it's in my soul
My feet may wander a thousand places
But my heart will lead me back home to my Donegal
Yes, my heart will lead me back home to my Donegal
Hands in the air
I wrote this little song about a aear ago
And I would love to dedicate it to my family
And to all of you lovely people
And the fans who've travelled to come and see me over the last few years
It means so, so much
