The Town I Loved So Well (我曾深爱的小镇) - Sean Dynes[00:00:00]
In my memory I will always see[00:00:09]
The town that I have loved so well[00:00:18]
Where our school played ball[00:00:28]
By the gasyard wall[00:00:33]
And we laughed through the smoke[00:00:38]
And the smell[00:00:41]
Going home in the rain[00:00:46]
Running up the dark lane[00:00:51]
Past the jail and down behind the fountain[00:00:55]
Those were happy days in[00:01:03]
So many many ways[00:01:08]
In the town I loved so well[00:01:12]
In the early morning the shirt factory horn[00:01:20]
Called women from Craigeen the Moor[00:01:29]
And the Bog[00:01:34]
While the man on the dole played the mother's role[00:01:38]
Fed the children and then walked the dogs[00:01:47]
And when times got tough[00:01:55]
There was just about enough[00:02:00]
But they saw it through without complaining[00:02:04]
For deep inside was a burning pride[00:02:12]
For the town I loved so well[00:02:21]
There was music there in the Derry air[00:02:28]
Like a language that we all could understand[00:02:37]
I remember the day when I earned my first pay[00:02:47]
When I played in the small pick up band[00:02:56]
There I spent my youth[00:03:03]
And to tell you the truth[00:03:08]
I was sad to leave it all behind me[00:03:12]
For I'd learned about life[00:03:20]
And I've found me a wife[00:03:24]
In the town I loved so well[00:03:28]
But when I returned how my eyes have burned[00:03:36]
To see how a town could be brought ti its knees[00:03:45]
By the armored cars and the bombed out bars[00:03:55]
And the gas that hangs on to every breeze[00:04:03]
Now the army's installed by[00:04:10]
That old gasyard wall[00:04:15]
And the damned barbwire gets higher and higher[00:04:19]
With their tanks and their guns[00:04:27]
Oh my god what have they done[00:04:31]
To the town I loved so well[00:04:35]
Now the music's gone but they still carry on[00:04:43]
For their spirit's been bruised never broken[00:04:51]
Though they won't forget still hearts are all set[00:05:01]
On tomorrow and peace once again[00:05:09]
For what's done is done and what's won is won[00:05:17]
And what's lost is lost and gone forever[00:05:25]
I can only pray for a bright brand new day[00:05:32]
For the town I loved so well[00:05:41]
