There's four that share this room, we work hard for the crack
Sleeping late on Sundays, I never get to mass
It's a long long way from Clare to here
It's a long long way from Clare to here
It's a long long way, it grows further by the day
It's a long long way from Clare to here
Friday rolls around we always end up fighting
My ma would like a letter soon, but I'm too tired for writing
It's a long long way from Clare to here
It's a long long way from Clare to here
It's a long long way, it grows further by the day
It's a long long way from Clare to here
It almost breaks my heart when I think of sweet Morrine.
I told her I'd be coming back my pockets full of green.
It's a long long way from Clare to here
It's a long long way from Clare to here
It's a long long way, it grows further by the day
It's a long long way from Clare to here
I sometimes hear a fiddle play, or maybe it's just a notion
I dreamed I see white horses dance on that other ocean
It's a long long way from Clare to here
It's a long long way from Clare to here
It's a long long way, it grows further by the day
It's a long long way from Clare to here
