The West Coast Of Clare lyrics - Ed Sheeran

(originally by Andy Irvine)

Sorrow and sadness, bitterness, grief

Memories I have of you

Won't leave me in peace

My mind was running back

To the west coast of Clare

Thinking of you

And the times we had there

I walked to Spanish Point

I knew I'd find you there

I stood on the white strand

You were everywhere

Vivid memories fade

But the mood still remains

I wish I could go back

And be with you again

In Milltown there's a pub

It’s there that I sat down

I see you everywhere

Your face is all around

The search for times past

Contains such sweet pain

I'll banish lonesome thoughts

But they’ll return again

I walk along the shore

The rain in my face

My mind is numb with grief

Of you there is no trace

I'll think of this again

In far off lands I roam

Walking with you

By this cold Atlantic fog

Sorrow and sadness, bitterness, grief

Memories I have of you

Won't leave me in peace

My mind was running back

To the west coast of Clare

Thinking of you

And the times we had there
