Ed Sheeran - The West Coast Of Clare Lyrics

*Lyrics*

Sorrow and sadness, bitterness, grief
Memories I have of you
Won't leave me in peace
My mind was running back
To the west coast of Clare
Thinking of you
And the times we had there

I walked to Spanish Point
I knew I'd find you there
I stood on the white strand
You were everywhere
Vivid memories fade
But the mood still remains
I wish I could go back
And be with you again

In Milltown there's a pub
It's there that I sat down
I see you everywhere
Your face is all around
The search for times past
Contains such sweet pain
I'll banish lonesome thoughts
But they'll return again

I walk along the shore
The rain in my face
My mind is numb with grief
Of you there is no trace
I'll think of this again
In far off lands I roam
Walking with you

Sorrow and sadness, bitterness, grief
Memories I have of you
Won't leave me in peace
My mind was running back
To the west coast of Clare
Thinking of you
And the times we had there

Bravo for this cover of the beautifulest irish song that I know...the original by Andy Irvine and planxty is simply wonderful...the best song ever...!

Ed helps me relax after I have written a song, and I'm tired as heck.

_Ahhh my home place...The greatest place in the world...and "if it's music you want go to Clare"_

Being from the west coast of Clare, this honestly warms my heart to no end ❤️

Have you heard David Gray's version? Wow! Real tear jerker

The original version by Planxty is much better than this attempt

_I have to agree with you_

This makes me want to be from Clare... Although Kerry ain't too bad either 😍👌

Ed Sheeran a singer like many in the world !

How on earth have i never heard this song ? How ?

Yes, thank you so much and I'm so sorry about that.. I managed to get all the albums EXCEPT one song: Typical Average!
That is really impossible to find!! What a huge loss! :(
Last cd of The Orange Room was sold on ebay for about 138£..

Well, the comment is two years old and things have changed. The jewellery story by Ed's mum (edsheeranjewellery. com) used to sell his old albums (some of them only in MP3 format), but now only sells jewellery (there's some great stuff though). On Ed's website there're still some old EPs (some of them in different versions) but sadly not the really old stuff like "The Orange Room EP", "Ed Sheeran" and "Want Some?". They aren't available anymore. I'm sorry!

What do you mean? I can't find anything :S

Of times past contains such sweet pain I'll banish lonesome thoughts but they'll return again... I walk along the shore the rain in my face my mind is numb with grief of you there is no trace I'll think of this again in the far off lands I Rome. Walking with you by this cold Atlantic fog.. Sorrow and sadness bitterness grief memories I have of you won't leave me in peace my mind is running back to the west coast of Clare. Thinking of you and the times we spent here
