Ireland Lyrics

Tori Amos

Drivin' in my Saab On my way to Ireland It's been a long time It's been a long time
Drivin' with my friends On my way to Ireland It's been a long time It's been a long time
So when I was out in the desert And a cowboy tried to lasso me He said, "You're red and made of clay, a virgin portrait" I let him wake me but decided not to stay
Drivin' in my Saab On my way to Ireland It's been a long time It's been a long time
Drivin' with my friends On my way to Ireland It's been a long time It's been a long time
Next in New York, I fell out with a dragon Of the white collar kind but just as ferocious I remembered Macha running faster than the horses Then an encounter with a voice that caressed me
Drivin' in my Saab On my way to Ireland It's been a long time A long time
Drivin' with my friends On my way to Ireland It's been a long time A long time
Wasn't it you who held off a surrender To one spoiled nun who taught you the names Of the mountains, on the moon and then a Jesuit Proceded to arrange your soul while I prayed on my knees
Drivin' in my Saab On my way to Ireland It's been a long time A long time
Drivin' with my friends On my way to Ireland It's been a long time A long time
A such a long, long time A long time, a long time
