Lyrics
Erin, is this where we should be now?
Tell me, have we lost our way?
Our lives are not all they could be now
Tell me, will we have our day
Early this morning I woke up and found
You dressed and saying we’re leaving this town
Now, as the sun’s going down in the west
Where are we going to start again next?
Erin, is this where we should be now?
Tell me, have we lost our way?
Our lives are not all they could be now
Tell me, will we have our day
When I lay down and slept under this tree
I dreamt we’d walked all the way to the sea
There, as we stood by the shore in the sand
A boat came to take us to a new land
