Dublin Town 1962 Songtext
von Patsy Watchorn

Me kids said, "Dad, just tell us one more time
About when you were young and in your prime
And the way that you met Ma
And all the things you saw
Tell us about the things you used to do."
I closed my eyes and rolled the years away
And everything′s the same as yesterday
How could I forget
The summer when we met
In Dublin Town in 1962?
All our days were sunny
All our skies were blue
In Dublin Town in 1962
We climbed the Hill of Howth and down again
We walked home from The Pillar in the rain
We courted in the park
Where the lights glow in the dark
We danced in Cleary's at the Metropolitan Zoo
Then we crossed the Ha′penny Bridge at evening tide It felt so good to have you by my side
We watched the mail boat sail
Paperboys shouted out our mail
In Dublin Town in 1962
All our days were sunny
All our skies were blue
In Dublin Town in 1962
Like many more, we kissed it all goodbye
We sailed away to give our luck a try
In that land across the sea
That's been good to you and me
Where our children play like we once used to do
Now me kids said, "Dad, that's really quite a tale
We know you have the spirit of the Gael
We have no regrets
And we′re very glad we met
In Dublin Town in 1962
In Dublin Town in 1962."
