lyrics

song for toffee ball

(Toffee was special and he was loved).

Take me across the river
I'm on the wrong side
This is not
Where my folks are
This is no place
For me to die

I got lost somewhere
On this journey
I was the boy
With the sparkling eyes
I have sisters
And they love me
Take me over
To the other side

Carry me across the river
Take me tae
The streets where I
Left my heart
As I got older
Lost my way
In a world of sighs

The bag
Just got too heavy
It's not the tools
I kept inside
The streets
Just kept on turning
I was always
On the other side

Carry me across the river
take me tae
The streets where I
Lived with the love
Of my Mother and Father
I was the apple
Of their eye

Take me across the river
I'm on the wrong side
This is not
Where my folks are
This is no place
For me to die
