Paddy's Green Shamrock Shore Lyrics
Fare well to old Ireland
Good bye to you Banna Strand
No time to look back
Facing the wind
Fighting the waves
May heaven protect us all
From cold, hunger and angry squalls
Pray I won’t be lost
Wind in the sails carry me safe
Chorus:
So, fare thee well
My own true love
I’ll think of you night and day
A place in my mind
You will surely find
Although I am so far away
And when I’m alone
Far away from home
I’ll think of the good times once more
Until I can make it back someday here
To Paddy’s green shamrock shore
Out now on the ocean deep
Ships noise makes it hard to sleep
Tears fill up my eyes
The image of you
Won’t go away
Chorus
New York is in sight at last
My heart it is pounding fast
Trying to be brave
Wishing you near
By my side
A stór
Chorus
Until I can make it back someday here
To Paddy’s green shamrock shore
Good bye to you Banna Strand
No time to look back
Facing the wind
Fighting the waves
From cold, hunger and angry squalls
Pray I won’t be lost
Wind in the sails carry me safe
So, fare thee well
My own true love
I’ll think of you night and day
A place in my mind
You will surely find
Although I am so far away
And when I’m alone
Far away from home
I’ll think of the good times once more
Until I can make it back someday here
To Paddy’s green shamrock shore
Ships noise makes it hard to sleep
Tears fill up my eyes
The image of you
Won’t go away
My heart it is pounding fast
Trying to be brave
Wishing you near
By my side
A stór
To Paddy’s green shamrock shore
