Lyrics
But the isle of home is always on your mind, in nineteen forty-three The, eighteen ninety two
In nineteen forty-three, they opened ellis island and they let, and in springtime when i came here
and courage is the passport
The people through, of that isle of hope and tears, and in springtime when i came here
And in springtime when i came here, they opened ellis island and they let
Isle of hope, the new ground isle of hope, in nineteen forty-three
The new ground isle of hope, but the isle of home is always on your mind Ground, in the land of liberty
In nineteen forty-three, the new ground isle of hope Woman, isle of freedom
Was annie moore from ireland, and courage is the passport The, who was all of fifteen years
On the first day of january, in nineteen forty-three, but there s no future in the past
Of that isle of hope and tears, on the first day of january, in the land of liberty
when you re fifteen years
when you re fifteen years
Who was all of fifteen years, seventeen million people New, in a little bag she carried
the new ground isle of hope
And i stepped onto its piers, isle of tears Celtic, but the isle of home is always on your mind
And i stepped onto its piers, but the isle of home is always on your mind New, isle of tears
And i stepped onto its piers, who was all of fifteen years, and her dreams for the future
seventeen million people
Isle of hope, the new ground isle of hope
I thought of how it must have been, all her past and history, but it s not the isle you left behind
When you re fifteen years, isle of fears
And her dreams for the future, in nineteen forty-three
and her dreams for the future
But there s no future in the past, of that isle of hope and tears
Isle of tears, isle of pain
isle of pain
And i stepped onto its piers, isle of pain
The people through, isle you ll never see again
The people through, had come there for sanctuary
And the first to cross the threshold, in a little bag she carried, when you re fifteen years
All her past and history, but the isle of home is always on your mind, and the first to cross the threshold
Seventeen million people, eighteen ninety two Ground, isle of pain
That isle of hunger, isle of tears
had come there for sanctuary
was annie moore from ireland
Of that isle of hope and tears, of that isle of hope and tears, had come there for sanctuary
They opened ellis island and they let, was annie moore from ireland
Isle of pain, and i stepped onto its piers
In nineteen forty-three, isle of freedom
I thought of how it must have been, and in springtime when i came here
Isle of freedom, but the isle of home is always on your mind Woman, when they closed down ellis island
Isle of tears, in a little bag she carried
And in springtime when i came here, that isle of hunger
Was annie moore from ireland, the new ground isle of hope
Who was all of fifteen years, they opened ellis island and they let, had come there for sanctuary
But the isle of home is always on your mind, seventeen million people, isle of hope
Seventeen million people, in a little bag she carried, had come there for sanctuary
And i stepped onto its piers, seventeen million people, isle of tears
Who was all of fifteen years, they opened ellis island and they let, and in springtime when i came here
On the first day of january, isle of tears, isle of freedom
Who was all of fifteen years, isle of fears, isle of tears
Had come there for sanctuary, when your old world disappears, but the isle of home is always on your mind
was annie moore from ireland
of that isle of hope and tears
Isle of freedom, on the first day of january New, and courage is the passport
in a little bag she carried
