"Achill Island" Lyrics

Oh the lights are shining bright out here on Broadway,
And My Eyes are growing dimmer day by day,
But my heart belongs to thee, far across the Irish sea,
In a little place that means the world to me,

It's Achill Island so far away, in dreams you call me,
Both night and day, and someday soon,
I'll cross the foam, to see again the friends I love,
In my Achill Island home,

Once again I'll see your mountains, lakes and valley's
Where I wandered long ago when just a boy
Where i used to sport and play and fish the hours away
By the little pool I called my hideaway

In Achill Island so far away, in dreams you call me,
Both night and day, and someday soon,
I'll cross the foam, to see again the friends I love,
In my Achill Island home,

I dream of you when light of day is breaking,
I think of you when evening shadows fall,
And I Hope someday to rest in the place that I love best,
Where the golden sun is sinking in the West,

In Achill Island so far away, in dreams you call me,
Both night and day, and someday soon,
I'll cross the foam, to see again the friends I love,
In my Achill Island home,

In Achill Island so far away, in dreams you call me,
Both night and day, and someday soon,
I'll cross the foam, to see again the friends I love,
In my Achill Island home,

To see again the friends I love,
In my Achill Island home
