LYRICS:
(Verse)
I’ve found myself afar from home
Across the world to hell and back
Off the edge to parts unknown
I cross my heart to tell you
That I’m oft without a plan or means
But if I’m being truthful
I’ve always made it by
Being half the way to useful
(Verse)
I found for me a rare wan’
Standin’ well and truly smitten
And I’d give to you a life with me
If God’d be permittin’
If I’m half the man you think I am
That’s twice the man I need to be to
To part the sea and give you
What a rare wan’ should be given
(Pre Chorus)
And you’ll always be
My Lock and key
(Chorus)
And I’ll crawl and claw my way back
’til my hands can all but function
And I’ll cross the land and sea by any means
I’ll tell you now, son
If you find me well and buckled
Then my sorrows are all sunken
If I go out on my shield,
Will you bring me back to Dublin
(Verse)
And I’d promise you the world
To show the lengths that I adore you
I’d cross the world back over
There’s no ship I wouldn’t board
And if I didn’t have the means
Then I’ll do all that I can afford to
And I’ll drag the world up by the neck
And place it out before you
(Pre Chorus)
And you’ll always be
My Lock and key
(Chorus)
And I’ll crawl and claw my way back
’til my hands can all but function
And I’ll cross the land and sea by any means
I’ll tell you now, son
If you find me well and buckled
Then me sorrows are all sunken sunken
If I go out on my shield,
Will you bring me back to Dublin
