And as we walked

Through the streets of Arklow

Oh the color

Of the day wore on

And our heads

Were filled with poetry

And the morning

A-comin' on to dawn

And as we walked

Through the streets of Arklow

And gay perfusion

In god's green land

And the gypsy's rode

With their hearts on fire

They say We love to wander,

Lord we love,

Lord we love to roam...



And as we walked

Through the streets of Arklow

In a drenching beauty

Rolling back 'til the day

And I saw your eyes

They was shining, sparkling crystal clear

And our souls were clean

And the grass did grow

And our souls were clean

And the grass did grow

And our souls were clean

And the grass did grow



And as we walked

Through the streets of Arklow
