The sun is shining
On the Belfast road today
It's been so long
I thought the clouds were here to stay
Now folks are lined up
To hear the music play
And I'm so lonesome for you now
From staying in the game
I'm more than flattered
Someone finally knows my name
There's a red carpet
I've never stood so close to fame
And I'm so lonesome for you now
I can fly like a hop
I'm the mighty Mississippi
Rolling to the Gulf
I got all I ever wanted
All I ever dreamed
And I'm so lonesome for you now
Down the mountain
A glacier makes it's way
Eyes can't see
The progress it makes
It's a long journey
But I found out the ice will break
Still I'm so lonesome for you now
