The Town I Loved So Well (我曾深爱的小镇) - Brier[00:00:00]

In my memory I will always see[00:00:10]

The town that I have loved so well[00:00:19]

Where our school played ball by the gasyard wall[00:00:28]

And we laughed through the smoke and the smell[00:00:37]

Going home in the rain running up the dark lane[00:00:46]

Past the jail and down behind the fountain[00:00:55]

Those were happy days in so many many ways[00:01:04]

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

In the early morning the shirt factory horn[00:01:22]

Called women from craigeen the moor and the bog[00:01:32]

While the man on the dole played the mother's role[00:01:40]

Fed the children and then walked the dogs[00:01:49]

And when times got tough there was just about enough[00:01:58]

But they saw it through without complaining[00:02:08]

For deep inside was a burning pride[00:02:16]

For the town I loved so well[00:02:26]

There was music there in the derry air[00:02:35]

Like a language that we all could understand[00:02:44]

I remember the day that I earned my first pay[00:02:53]

When I played in the small pick up band[00:03:02]

There I spent my youth and to tell you the truth[00:03:11]

I was sad to leave it all behind me[00:03:20]

For I'd learned about life and I found a wife[00:03:29]

In the town I loved so well[00:03:38]

But when I returned how my eyes have burned[00:03:47]

To see how a town could be brought to it's knees[00:03:57]

By the armored cars and the bombed out bars[00:04:06]

And the gas that hangs on to every breeze[00:04:15]

Now the army's installed by that old gasyard wall[00:04:24]

And the damned barbed wire gets higher and higher[00:04:33]

With their tanks and their guns oh my god what have they done[00:04:41]

To the town I loved so well[00:04:51]

Now the music's gone but they still carry on[00:05:00]

For their spirit's been bruised never broken[00:05:09]

They will not forget but their hearts are set[00:05:18]

For tomorrow and peace once again[00:05:27]

For what's done is done and what's won is won[00:05:36]

And what's lost is lost and gone forever[00:05:45]

I can only pray for a bright brand new day[00:05:54]

In the town I loved so well[00:06:03]
