Many's The Time (In Dublin)

Many's the time I'd give anything just to belong
Just to belong
Many's the time what I did I would feel to be wrong
(I was only trying too hard)
Just to belong
(I was only trying too hard)

The wind pulled the water
The bonfire burning high
You took me in your arms
And told me I could cry
I didn't want to hurt you
I felt something was right
I didn't mean to want you
Just to belong

First we got turned away
Then we got welcomed in
(First we got turned away
Then we got welcomed in)
First we got turned away
Then we got welcomed in
(I was only trying too hard)
Place to begin
(I was only trying too hard)

We drove past a nightclub
And beaten up old car
The man on the door said
"Do we know who you are?"
They gave us fruit cocktails
That we didn't want to drink
Techno music coming through
I started to think

Where are the people that we welcomed in?
Where is the place, the place to begin?
Stop to be someone, stop to be now
(Stop to be now, stop to be now)

Many's the time I'd give anything just to belong
Many's the time what I did I would feel to be wrong
(I was only trying too hard)
Just to belong
(I was only trying too hard)
Just to belong
(This is where we begin)

I made it my purpose
I made it my plan
The rulers of the world
Will never understand
That you are my dancing queen
I want to hear you sing
The day that you do
I'll be your dancing king

First we got turned away
Then we got welcomed in
(First we got turned away
Then we got welcomed in)
First we got turned away
Then we got welcomed in

And if our words were stars
And sent to the sky for
(The sky for stars)
It felt so good
It felt so easy
It felt so good
It felt so easy
(I was only trying too hard)
It felt so good
It felt so easy
