Reasons To Leave

Kate Purcell - Reasons To Leave

Ireland’s a dream

Of hope for what the day will bring

The land and the sea

Is what I’ve come to trust

All that I am

Is telling me I shouldn't go

And all that I know

Is they’re telling me I must

Reasons to leave

Are money and finding better work

Reasons to stay

Are music and love

My brothers are ten

And sisters I have five

Four to one bed

Is room enough to grow

All that we are

Is all that I have ever known

And all that I have

Will be here when I’m gone

Reasons to leave

Are fortune and fame for what it’s worth

The reason to stay

Is heaven on earth

I’ve heard about work up in Boston

Laying tracks down to San Augustine

Sometimes with an eye for New Zealand

I lean

Reasons to leave

Are money and finding better work

Reasons to stay

Are music and love

Reasons to leave

Are fortune and fame for what it’s worth

The reason to stay

Is heaven on earth

Music and love

Heaven on earth

Music and love

End
