On a rainy day,
long time ago I left my
country
where the river flowed
My father told me,
son you've got to go Oh I miss you Ireland,
I'm going back home
Many years have flown,
tears like
rivers gone Foreign places,
strange days alone
But I pray that my dreams come true
Back to Ireland,
coming back to you
I know the sun will shine,
I know the sun will shine
And the ship will fly,
sunny days, they will stop my crying
Because I'm trusting
and I'm carrying on
Back to Ireland,
I will come home
On a rainy day,
long time ago I left my
country where the rivers flowed
My father told me,
son you've got to go
Oh I miss you Ireland,
I'm coming home
