So Much Of The World

It does look like that time is catching up on me
And so much of the world i never will see
Though in my travels i have met people from almost everywhere
It is not a small World the  big World out there
The Athenian loves Athens the Roman loves Rome
And Millstreet in Duhallow to me is still home
Though i have not lived there for twenty six years
And for it i've shed all of my nostalgic tears
I have seen a bit of the World beyond Hibernia's shore
But many others than me they have travelled far more
I've never had enough of cash for to travel far and wide
That lack of money can be a barrier to travel cannot be denied
Though the lust of the wander has not died in me
So much of the world i never will see.
