Emerald Rose - Bring Me Home lyrics

I was born in America, I was And this land has always been a friend to me But in my soul there is a yearning An ember fanned to burning From a spark that flew from far across the sea Every year, ever louder grows the song Every time the pipes or bodhran start to play In my heart there is a singing Ever closer to me bringing The day when I'll no longer stay away Chorus: You call me home, Mother, bring me home Let me stand on Erin's emerald shore Let the wild winds of Alba blow and fill me with their lore Let the sacred wells of Cymru flow and cleanse my spirit's core You call me home, Mother, bring me home Though I've never stood upon the mound of Tara Or run my fingers on the stones of Salisbury In my bones there is a thrumming Like a secret drone that's humming And calling me into their mysteries In the dawn I imagine that I hear them Ancient tongues, ancient words in an ancient song In my mind I dream they've found me The old ones circle round me And play a tune that bids me sing along Chorus
