The Emerald Isle
From the rolling hills of emerald green
To herds of sheep grazing in the vast field
The charm of Eire never fails to be seen
Where forebears once frolicked is what thou shield -

Golden hair withering into whiteness
I beg that your wholehearted love will stay
You keep me sane and my worries at bay -
Clouds
Clouds
Poke a bear and it will chase you up a tree
Charging to their own paths
Mightier than rooted grass
So, we rise into the sky

I can just be me.
