If you ever go to the marble city
Of Kilkenny in the month of May
Remember me to the bank of the river
Where I first noticed I was fading awayâ¦
There is a castle with children a-playing
There is a father who will say hello
He doesnât have to â thatâs just the way
Heâs feeling â
And thatâs such a long way to go
Oh donât pick me âcos Iâm not playing
I âm just staring into space
I canât hear a single word youâre saying
Thereâ s nothing happening behind this face
Iâ m just a man and Iâm on my own
I hear strange news from another star
Iâ m just a man and Iâm on my own
Dreaming of the marble city bar
Well I crossed the bridge
And I walked down slowly
Through the reeds to the watermill
The sun was cold in the time of losing
I stood all alone in the Irish chill
I was tempted there to take my life
The water flashed by like the blade of a knife
The roar of the rive rose up to the sky
And I knew nobody would hear my cryâ¦
âHey Jackie â we were looking for you
Youâll catch your death out here,
And your beers getting cold â
So why donâ t you come back in?â
Oh donât pick me âcos Iâm not playing
I âm just staring into space
I canât hear a single word youâre saying
Thereâ s nothing happening behind this face
Iâ m just a man and Iâm on my own
I hear strange news from another star
Iâ m just a man and Iâm on my own
Dreaming of the marble city bar
