Homeland Lyrics

Homeland – Mick Hanly
Chorus
This is my homeland, my heart is here
These are the voices I long to hear
No matter how far I may roam
I have a homeland I have a home
I have a homeland I have a home
When the sun goes down and the evening light
Moves like a ghost to starry night
When serious twinkles do hypnotise
It's good to sit and realise
Chorus
I love our stories and the teller's gift
I love the lonesome pipers drift

No cleaner fields do I need to see
These simple things they comfort me
Chorus
If for some reason I had to quit
This river bench where I sit
I think I’d weep for an old refrain
And never dam the rain again
Chorus x 2
