lyrics

BELFAST CITY

WORDS AND MUSIC( ALEXANDER QUINN MCPS/PRS 2012)

BELFAST CITY YOU'RE OLD BUT YOU'RE PRETTY,
AND WHEN YOU THINK OF EVERYTHING ,
THAT YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH
THE BOMBED-OUT PLACES ,THE BLOOD-STAINED FACES
WILL ALWAYS BE A PAINFUL LEGACY FOR YOU.

BELFAST CITY, YOU'RE STRONG AND YOU'RE GRITTY
YOU WATCHED YOUR FACTORIES AND YOUR LINEN MILLS CLOSE DOWN.
THOSE WORK PLACES ARE NOW EMPTY SPACES,
BUT STILL PROUD SAMSON AND GOLIATH
STAND THEIR GROUND.

CHORUS :

AND LIKE THE PHOENIX BIRD, YOU LET YOUR WINGS UNFURL,
AND YOU ROSE UP FROM THE ASHES OF DESPAIR.
THERE'S NOWHERE ELSE ON EARTH,
I'D CHOOSE TO HAVE MY BIRTH ,
THAN BELFAST CITY
RESTING BY MY LAGAN STREAM.

BELFAST CITY, YOU'VE KNOWN PAIN AND PITY,
AND WE NEVER WILL FORGET WHAT YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH.
BUILD FOR TOMORROW, WITHOUT HATRED OR SORROW.
LET'S BUILD A FUTURE FOR THE CHILDREN OF TODAY.

CHORUS:

AND LIKE THE PHOENIX BIRD, WE'LL LET OUR WINGS UNFURL,
AND WE'LL RISE UP FROM THE ASHES OF DESPAIR.
MY ONLY PRAYER WOULD BE , WE'D BE ONE FAMILY AND LIVE IN HARMONY BESIDE MY LAGAN STREAM.

THERE'S NOWHERE ELSE ON EARTH I'D CHOOSE TO HAVE MY BIRTH, THAN BELFAST CITY
RESTING BY MY LAGAN STREAM.
