Nanci Griffith song lyrics

On Grafton Street song lyrics

    Listen to this Nanci Griffith lyrics
On Grafton Street at Christmas time
The elbows push you 'round.
This is not my place of memories -
I'm a stranger in this town.

The faces seem familiar,
And I know those songs they're playing.
But I close my eyes and find myself
Five thousand miles away.

It's funny how my world goes 'round without you -
You're the one thing I never thought I could live without.
I just found this smile to think about you;
You're a Saturday night far from the madding crowd.

The buskers sing by candle light
In front of Bewley's Store,
And a young nun offers me a chair
At a table by the door.

And I feel compelled to tell her
Of the sisters that we knew,
How when they lit their candles
I'd say a prayer for you.

It's funny how my world goes 'round without you -
You're the one thing I never thought I could live without.
I just found this smile to think about you;
You're a Saturday night far from the madding crowd.

The church bells ring for holy hour,
I'm back out in the rain.
It's been twenty years or more
Since I last said your name.

I hear you live near Dallas now
In a house out on the plains;
Why Grafton Street brought you to mind
I really can't explain.

It's funny how my world goes 'round without you -
You're the one thing I never thought I could live without.
I just found this smile to think about you;
You're a Saturday night far from the madding crowd.

On Grafton Street at Christmas time
The elbows push you 'round.
All I carry now are memories -
I'm a stranger to this town.
