1. Take me away from this city, And leave me to where I can be on my own. I wanted to see you and now that I have I just wanna be left alone. I'll always remember your kind words, And I'll still remember your name, But I've seen you changing and turning, And I know that things just won't be the same. Ref. I remember that summer in Dublin, And the Liffey as it stank like hell, And young people walking down Grafton Street, Everyone looking so well. I was singing a song I heard somewhere, Called "Rock'n'Roll Never Forget", When my humming was smothered by the 46A, And the scream of a low flying jet. So, I jumped on a bus to Dun Laoghaire, Stopping off to pick up my guitar, When a drunk on a bus told me how to get rich, I was glad we weren't going too far. 2. So, I'm leaving on Wednesday morning, Trying to find a place where I can hear, The wind and the birds and the sea and rocks, And where open roads are always out there. And if sometimes I tire of the quiet, And I wanna get back up that hill, I just get on the road and I stick out my thumb, â? Cause I know for sure you'll be there still. Ref. [As above] I remember that summer in Dublin. I can't stop see that sunshine in Dublin.
