I’m going home

Mike donnelly 1944 (Wicklow)



I’m going home
Been away for so long time
Left the ones who loved me most
In anger drove me far away
Til just now im going home

I hope to find just one old friend
Who relationship I can mend
Then there’s lyn Tom and bill
Whose faces I see still

My car now turns the final bend
New life I must make amends
