A wistful tune about loneliness and lost love while on the road, "Ireland" was co-written with my engineer Will Inglis and features great fiddle technique by Denver violinist Laura Quam.
Lyrics
Got a quarter tank of gas. Is that enough to get me Where I want to be On the green grass Of that lovely melody In that shining symphony In Ireland? Tell me once, tell me twice, But I won't listen to the Voices in my head About what I'm missin Back home, back home 'Cause I'm bound to roam To Ireland Oh this road is so lonely. Oh this road is so lonely. Stay, just stay, stay with me. Mister how do I get back To the road where I Left my heart intact On his shoulder When I cried, I cried When I lost all my designs For Ireland? Oh this road is so lonely. Oh this road is so lonely. Stay, just stay, stay with me. Got a quarter tank of gas. Is that enough to get me To the promised land In Ireland?
