If I could choose |
They envy me, my hills of Clare |
The white gulls calling in the soft sea air |
So much to lose |
And yet I'd leave the hills of Clare |
And live in a desert if I had you there |
What would I lose if I could choose? |
|
If I could choose a place to walk with you |
I'd choose the longest road |
And it would lead us to a house that no one knew |
Bellows by the fire, and the turf smoke rising higher |
Than the lark that wings and always sings of you |
|
If I could choose a time to talk with you |
I'd choose the longest day |
And over all the hills of Clare, I'd shout the news |
I would tell them how a day could last forever |
And I'd never leave your side if I could choose |
|
If I could choose a time to talk with you |
I'd choose the longest day |
And over all the hills of Clare, I'd shout the news |
I would tell them how a day could last forever |
And I'd never leave your side if I could choose |
