[ti:Isle Of Inisfree] [ar:John McDermott] [al:The Essential Collection] [by:] [offset:0] [00:00.00]Isle Of Inisfree - The Irish Tenors [00:13.22]I've met some folks who say that I'm a dreamer [00:18.34] [00:19.51]And I've no doubt there's truth in what they say [00:23.78] [00:25.38]But sure a body's bound to be a dreamer [00:31.59] [00:32.50]When all the things he loves are far away [00:37.36] [00:39.37]And precious things are dreams unto an exile [00:44.66] [00:45.50]They take him o'er the land across the sea [00:50.00] [00:52.01]Especially when it happens he's an exile [00:57.41] [00:58.58]From that dear lovely Isle of Inisfree [01:03.86] [01:11.99]And when the moonlight peeps across the rooftops [01:17.24] [01:18.23]Of this great city wondrous though it be [01:23.25] [01:24.54]I scarcely feel it's wonder or it's laughter [01:29.66] [01:31.24]I'm once again back home in Inisfree [01:36.77] [01:37.65]I wander o'er green hills through dreamy valleys [01:43.32] [01:44.20]And find a peace no other land would know [01:49.19] [01:50.77]I hear the birds make music fit for angels [01:56.43] [01:57.73]And watch the rivers laughing as they flow [02:03.46] [02:07.26]And then into a humble shack I wander [02:12.74] [02:13.72]My dear old home and tenderly behold [02:19.00] [02:20.23]The folks I love around the turf fire gathered [02:25.95] [02:26.80]On bended knees their rosary is told [02:32.49] [02:33.17]But dreams don't last [02:35.85]Though dreams are not forgotten [02:38.35] [02:39.92]And soon I'm back to stern reality [02:45.09] [02:46.54]But though they pave the footways here with gold dust [02:52.06] [02:53.35]I still would choose my Isle of Inisfree [02:58.71] [03:02.03]I still would choose my Isle of Inisfree
