_______

I've met some folks who say that I'm a dreamer,  And I've no doubt there's truth in what they say.

But sure a body's bound to be a dreamer,  When all the things he loves are far away.

And precious things are dreams unto an exile,  They take him o'er the land across the sea,

Especi'lly when it happens he's an exile,  From that dear lovely Isle Of Innisfree.

And when the moonlight peeps across the rooftops,  Of this great city, wondrous tho it be.

I scarcely feel it's wonder or it's laughter,  I'm once again back home in Innisfree.
