Van Morrison - Streets of Arklow lyrics

And as we walked through
The streets of Arklow
Oh the color of the day wore on
And our heads were filled with poetry
And the morning a-comin' on to dawn

And as we walked through
The streets of Arklow
And gay perfusion in God's green land
And the gypsies rode with
Their hearts on fire
They say "We love to wander, Lord, we love
Lord we love to roam"

And as we walked through
The streets of Arklow
In a drenching beauty rolling
Back 'til the day
And I saw your eyes, they was shining
Sparkling crystal clear
And our souls were clean and
The grass did grow
And our souls were clean and
The grass did grow
And our souls were clean and
The grass did grow

And as we walked through
The streets of Arklow
