Im Irish ... we do people say this has to do with Ireland ? Its got nothing to do with where she's from ! The lyrics and song is typical way Irish people sing about family life.though. This song is about her as a child outside playing and enjoying that like all kids try to do whatever the circumstances. Her mother didn't like her which is normal to have one outcast in Irish families. one of gets the stick! Her father liked her .. but Irish men didn't show affection back then and couldn't open to her problems ! her mother held her because obviously deep down she loved her daughter but wouldn't accept the way she was on the surface The song goes on to now that she's grown up asking her family to understand what she has become it wasn't her design .. ie gods plan whatever she has become and she's feeling that people looked down on her .

She was unhappy about something and people didn't find her but she was happy out there and misses her childhood does anyone care ?
