Текст песни
Oh, the four of us share the room as you work hard for the brass
And getting up late on Sundays, I'd never get to mass
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
Oh, it's a long, long way, it gets further day by day
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
When Friday night comes around and it's only into fighting
Me ma would leave a letter home, but I'm too tired for writing
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
Oh, it's a long, long way, it gets further day by day
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
And the only time I feel all right is when I'm into drinking
It eases off the pain of it and levels out my thinking
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
Oh, it's a long, long way, it gets further day by day
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
And I dream I hear a piper play or maybe it's just a notion
I dream I see white horses dancing on another ocean
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
Oh, it's a long, long way, it gets further day by day
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way from Clare to here!
