Reasons To Leave (heaven On Earth) Lyrics - Kieran Goss

Ireland's a dream 

Of hope for what the day will bring 

The land and the sea 

Is what I've come to trust 

All that I am 

Is telling me I should not go 

And all that I know 

Is they're telling me I must 

Reasons to leave 

Are money and finding better work 

Reasons to stay 

Are music and love 

Reasons to leave 

Are fortune and fame for what it's worth 

The reason to stay 

Is heaven on earth 

My brothers are ten 

And sisters I have five 

Four to one bed 

Is room enough to grow 

All that we are 

Is all that I have ever known 

And all that I have 

Will be here when I'm gone 

I've heard about work up in Boston 

Laying tracks down to San Augustine 

Sometimes with an eye for New Zealand 

I lean
