Belfast Song - Jealous Of The Birds

We sit on steps of St Anne’s Cathedral

Cold whips of wind with choir of gods

Your kin of my kin side by side

Like sea water lapping the hall of a

With sun on the bricks I see you again

Fierce as a foghorn?

sweet as a ram?

We talk about all of the people we knew

Their lives full of worth looking up to

I wanna go were the sun’s a

Where the will shine

Where the moonlight’s a

appear guarding

With laughter in pines and bright ribbon streaming

Where rain gutter storms as black as a taxi

Clusters of life from Cave Hill and

Spring grass as fragrant sour

And the irises shaking their flowery beds

I’ve known you forever and it does my heart good

To see smile as the raindrops drip down your hood

I wanna go were the sun’s a

Where the will shine

Where the moonlight’s a

I wanna go were the sun’s a

Where the will shine

Where the moonlight’s a

I had a dream my hand grasped the olive branch

I had a dream my hand grasped the olive branch

I had a dream our hands grasped the olive branch

I had a dream our hands grasped the olive branch

I had a dream our hands grasped the olive branch
