The Town I Loved So Well - Johnny Logan[00:00:00]

Written by：Coulter[00:00:03]

In my memory[00:00:16]

I will always see[00:00:21]

The town that I have loved so well[00:00:25]

Where our school played ball by the gasyard wall[00:00:33]

And we laughed through the smoke and the smell[00:00:41]

Going home in the rain running up the dark lane[00:00:48]

Past the jail and down behind the fountain[00:00:57]

Those were happy days in so very many ways[00:01:05]

In the town I have loved so well[00:01:13]

In the early morning the shirt factory horn[00:01:21]

Called the women from creggan the Moor and the Bog[00:01:29]

While the men on the dole played a mothers role[00:01:37]

Fed the children and then trained the dog[00:01:45]

And when times got tough there was just about enough[00:01:53]

But they saw it through without complaining[00:02:01]

For deep inside was a burning pride[00:02:09]

In the town I loved so well[00:02:17]

There was music there in the Derry air[00:02:25]

Like a language that we all could understand[00:02:33]

I remember the day when I earned my first pay[00:02:42]

And I played in a small pickup band[00:02:50]

There I spent my youth and to tell you the truth[00:02:57]

I was sad to leave it all behind me[00:03:05]

For I learned about life[00:03:13]

I'd found my self wife[00:03:18]

In the town I have loved so well[00:03:22]

But when I returned how my eyes have burned[00:03:30]

To see how a town could be brought to it's knees[00:03:38]

By the armoured cars and the bombed out bars[00:03:46]

And the gas that hangs on to every tree[00:03:54]

Now the army's in stalled by that old gasyard wall[00:04:01]

And the d**ned barbed wire gets higher and higher[00:04:09]

With their tanks and their guns[00:04:18]

Oh god look what have they done[00:04:21]

To the town I have loved so well[00:04:26]

Now the music's gone but they stay carry on[00:04:34]

For their spirit's been bruised never broken[00:04:42]

They will not forget but their hearts are set[00:04:50]

On tomorrow and peace once again[00:04:58]

For what's done is done and what's won is won[00:05:06]

And what's lost is lost and gone forever[00:05:14]

I can only pray for a bright brand new day[00:05:22]

In the town I have loved so well[00:05:30]
