00:12I left the heather for the cobbles and the gray
00:15Took the morning train to Dublin just to find my way
00:18Was looking for a purpose, maybe just a bit of life
00:24When I saw her in a tavern on a rainy Tuesday night
00:27She had the city in her eyes
00:29It's a wild and restless grace
00:30I knew then and there I'd never look at another face
00:35I told her of the limestone walls
00:38The silence of the dew, she laughed and said the city's cold
00:40She's looking for something true
00:42Lord knows I ain't got much but a tractor and a barn
00:45I started spending love like a weaver works his yarn
00:48Oh, Margaret, leave the neon lights behind
00:51I'll give you all the peace you've been looking hard to find
00:54From the city's concrete heart to the greatest
00:57Till I know
00:59We'll build a life together
01:01We're the wild cobbles, we pack your bags for the country
01:04Let the city fade away
01:06I'm yours
01:07My darling Margaret, come home with me today
01:11We're living the chapel where the ivy climbs the stone
01:15No more walking Dublin streets or feeling all alone
01:18She traded silk for cotton and her heels for sturdy booze
01:23Now she's planting seeds of joy alongside my deeper roots
01:26We watch the sun go down behind the mountains in the west
01:29Two hearts in the country
01:31Darling, put to rest
01:35Oh, Margaret, leave the neon lights behind
01:38I'll give you all the peace you've been looking hard to find
01:41From the city's concrete heart to the greenest
01:44Till I know
01:47We'll build a life together
01:49We're the wild cobbles, we pack your bags for the country
01:52Let the city fade away
01:53I'm yours
01:54My darling Margaret, come home with me today
02:00The road was long to get her here
02:02But the journey was the grace
02:04Now the only world I need
02:06Is right here in this place
02:10Oh, Margaret, leave the neon lights behind
02:14I'll give you all the peace you've been looking hard to find
02:17From the city's concrete heart to the greenest
02:20Till I know
02:22We'll build a life together
02:24We're the wild cobbles, we pack your bags for the country
02:27Let the city fade away
02:29I'm yours
02:30My darling Margaret, come home with me today
02:34The rain is falling soft now
02:37On the roof above our bed
02:40Just me and my Margaret
02:42Just like I always said
02:46Did
02:47Let the city fade away
02:47And the city has reached the world
02:48The city's concrete heart to the side
02:48To be that
02:48To be an ear
02:48To be a light
02:48To be a heart
