Simple Minds - Belfast Child



Uploaded by: kaleid1990
Video Description:
When my love said to me
Meet me down by the gallow tree
For it's sad news I bring
About this old town and all that it's offering
Some say troubles abound
Some day soon they're gonna pull the old town down
One day we'll return here,
When the Belfast Child sings again
Brothers sisters where are you now
As I look for you right through the crowd
All my life here I've spent
With my faith in God the Church and the Government
But there's sadness abound
Some day soon they're gonna pull the old town down
One day we'll return here,
When the Belfast Child sings again
When the Belfast Child sings again
Some come back Billy, won't you come on home
Come back Mary, you've been away so long
The streets are empty, and your mother's gone
The girls are crying, it's been oh so long
And your father's calling, come on home
Won't you come on home, won't you come on home
ome back people, you've been gone a while
And the war is raging, in the Emerald Isle
That's flesh and blood man, that's flesh and blood
All the girls are crying but all's not lost
The streets are empty, the streets are cold
Won't you come on home, won't you come on home
The streets are empty
Life goes on
One day we'll return here
When the Belfast Child sings again
When the Belfast Child sings again

gingerpeachie how long has it been since u were in N.I. because i live there and there has been peace, fragile peace but still, no more bombs, no more IRA, just some sectarianism and racism, but it is recovering from the 30 years of damage that was rought on it

also it isnt shallow, it is extremely deep, it has emotion and feel to it, like the guy is actually sorry for his Gaelic cousins

Dthompson has a point tho, but dont forget hu it was that forced it upon us, it was the english hu sent over the Presbrytirians to Ulster, if they didnt do that then there wuldnt have been any Protestants, also if St Paddy hu was british didnt exist there wuld be no Catholics, therefore no fighting, so i think we've established it was the Englishs fault that the "Troubles" happened

Hey chill, It's only my opinion, my dad was from Crossmaglen. I was brought up on a South Glasgow estate 2 miles from Jim Kerr, same age as him, I have a partner in Dublin and was in Londonderry 2 mths ago. I love Simple Minds and all of Ireland but I still think this song, though beautiful, is a wee bit overdone. I also know that Republican and Loyalist thugs are still at it on a lot lower key. Still wish an Irish (Northern) band wrote this, mind you "Stiff Little Fingers" had it sussed. :¬P

fair enough and actually i turned fifteen in september, im in thailand doin missionary work with Ethnos asia only been here 4 months mind, i suppose ur right a wee bit tho, but ppl always overdramatize sad things, slavery, racism towards black, while i admit they were bad the racism one went to ways, also i think Van Morrison did a song about it, i no i did but i havent shown my songs to any1 else

I absolutley love this song, it was my nanna's favourate song, and played at her funeral. We always said we would see Simple Minds live, and last night we did in Manchester. This song gave me goosebumbs when they performed it live. I would really book tickets to see them if you like Simple Minds. Its brilliant.
Loved every min of it, wish i could rewind time, and go back again :D
