I Am From A Place

I am from a place by old hills far away
Where i have not been to for many a day
I have not seen the Boggeraghs for thirty four years
Yet for the what was i have shed my last tears
Those i went to school with are ageing today
And some from their first homes living far away
And some where the dead are at peace now do lay
With any one person youth never does stay
I left the old fields the bigger World to see
Though i now realize the old fields they did not leave me
In fancy i often walk to where the waterways meet
In the green countryside near the Town of Millstreet
But only the memories now does remain
Of the what was for me that will not be again.
