Correction Lyrics Giuseppe/Away Ye Broken Heart (Live from Belfast) by Christy Moore

Back

Lyrics

Every time I go to London
I think about Giuseppe Conlon
Who left his home in Belfast
And travelled over to his son

As he said goodbye to Sarah
And took the boat to Heysham
Little did Giuseppe know
He’d never see that place again

Giuseppe was an ailing man
And every breath he drew
Into his tired lungs
He used to maintain his innocence

Behind those walls
Behind those bars
For everyday remaining in his life
Maintaining his innocence
Giuseppe Conlon, Giuseppe

Away, away you broken heart you
Leave my chest like a hollow cave
Stand me somewhere near the ocean
I will wait there wave after wave
Away, away you broken heart you
Who can heal you when you’re like this
There’s no angel born in heaven
There’s no lover’s healing kiss

Away, away you broken heart you
Lose yourself in the darkest night
If the stars can take your sorrow
Let them take it and that’s alright

Away, away you broken heart you
Leave my breast like a hollow cave
Stand me somewhere near the ocean
I will wait there wave after wave
