Song for a Friend lyrics

If you look over there, that's where I was born

And if you close your eyes and visualise,

you'll see me kick a football down the road

I had a happy childhood, I always loved to dance

And all the boys would make a fool out of me

But the girls would take a chance

And it all feels like yesterday

It's amazing how the time just drifts away

I love sea air

If you look over there, that's where my old ma worked

Every day at 5 am she'd get up

So that she could take care of us

There was never a day going by

Where we could not rely on our old mam

I can't imagine life without her,

I can't imagine now

She made everything perfect

She was just the best mam in the world

Don't you love sea air

Oh oh, oh oh oh

If you look over there, that's where I will die

I'll take this old chair of mine and drive into the sea

And all the fishes they will laugh at me

And seagulls they will snap at me

But I , aye, I will find my peace again

Oh I love the sea air

Oh oh, oh oh oh

Oh I love the sea air
