Irish traditional song lyrics \u2014 collected by Beer Belly Band.<\/em><\/p>\n

Take me back to Dublin, across the Irish Sea
\nJust one night in that fair city, to see again that sweet Kathleen
\nIt’s well that I remember, that night in Merrion Row
\nWhen I saw her through the laughter, she took my heart and then my soul<\/p>\n

Chorus:
\nAnd sometimes late at night, across the ocean comes a voice
\nAre you Molly Bloom, were you conjured up by Joyce<\/p>\n

Exchanging thoughts on life and living in the session and the smoke
\nIn her eyes I saw my future, it filled my heart and mind with hope
\nBut the hours past too quickly and the drink it flowed like rain
\nMe and my lovely Colleen, I was her darling man<\/p>\n

Chorus:
\nAnd sometimes late at night, across the ocean comes a voice
\nAre you Molly Bloom, were you conjured up by Joyce<\/p>\n

Then our evening abruptly ended, with the barman calling time
\nWe left this place in silence, her hand clenched tight in mine
\nSo we said our last farewell, our heart full sore with pain
\nThen she walked into the darkness and never even asked my name<\/p>\n

Chorus:
\nAnd now I sit here, late at night, and in my mind I hear that voice
\nYou were my Molly Bloom, for that moment I was James Joyce<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
