Looking In©TonyFallon0216
We had no phone in Ireland so I had to walk a mile
Just to hear you laugh or to see you smile
I did this daily it must have been for eight years
And when we finished national school we both left there in tears
I was going to the brothers you to the convent
No more sitting in the same desk I was discontent
Yet our romance flourished as we cycled home
Until one day you said you were going o’er the foam
But I had an uncle in America and I asked him to petition
And if maybe he could fix me up with a full time position
It took a long time to get the papers much to my chagrin
I’m physically here in America now no more outside looking in
Just to hear you laugh or to see you smile
I did this daily it must have been for eight years
And when we finished national school we both left there in tears
I was going to the brothers you to the convent
No more sitting in the same desk I was discontent
Yet our romance flourished as we cycled home
Until one day you said you were going o’er the foam
But I had an uncle in America and I asked him to petition
And if maybe he could fix me up with a full time position
It took a long time to get the papers much to my chagrin
I’m physically here in America now no more outside looking in
