about

My old friend Bo sent me the title and asked whether I might try and write a song around it and this is the result. I set the story in County Cork just between Skibbereen and Baltimore. Thanks to Roger Dopson for the photo of Dogz in the bluebells.

lyrics

On the road to Barlogie Cove
With an old friend of mine
I drive past that house of yours
That overlooks Lough Ine
We’re off to empty lobster pots
On his old clinker boat
I hear a single seagull sing
A very plaintive note
You’re sitting in the window
Of that upstairs room
You look with longing at that
Hill where bluebells bloom

That hill
Where bluebells bloom
That hill
Where bluebells bloom

Where you took me in the springtime
Through the woodland glade so blue
To the summit of your universe
And swore that you were true
I see that his flash car is back
Parked up in the drive
The way that I was feeling
He’s lucky to be alive

I guess that I’ll keep driving
Down to Barlogie Quay
And let all of last year’s fantasies
Fade into memory
I hope you’ll not be crying
In your lonely room
As you look out that window
Onto Knockomagh Hill
There where bluebells bloom!
