Emerald Isle

I wait, on the emerald isle

For you to come and rescue me

From every step I can't take

Feet don't you ever break

Drag me over that line

Half way around the medicine ball

Is far enough to blow me back

Like you broke the bank

On the ticket worth every damn nickle

You got me that time



[Chorus]

Cause I've been on the road one day too long

Can't hear the record for another sad song

Look at all these faces can't all we wrong

That's a lot of my heart out there

Did you fly, a million miles for every single one that I ran

I don't know which of us is crazy

Oh sweet baby, that's the madness I desire

And there's a twinkle in the clifted sky

Been there forever

And lights the way for the waters

The jacles and the lovers

And the broken street lights



[Chorus]

So do we keep running through the motions

Knowing that someday is gonna come later

When you can't keep your pretty mouth from saying

I wanna come home

I wait on the emerald isle for you to come and rescue me
