The kids said "Da just tell us one more time
About when you were young and in your prime
And the way that you met Ma, and everything you saw
And tell us all the things you used do"
So I close my eyes and roll the years away
And everything's as clear as yesterday
For how could I forget, that summer when we met
In Dublin Town in 1962

All our days were sunny
All our skies were blue
In Dublin Town in 1962

We climbed the hill of Howth and down again
Walked home from the pillar in the rain
We courted in the park, watched the lights glow in the dark
Danced in Cleary's and the Metropole 'til two
We crossed the Halfpenny Bridge at eventide
It felt so good to have you by my side
And we watched the Mail Boat sail, paper boys cry Herald and Mail
In Dublin Town in 1962

All our days were sunny
All our skies were blue
In Dublin Town in 1962

Like many more we kissed it all goodbye
Sailed away to give our luck a try
In this land across the sea, that's been good to you and me
Where our children played as we once used to do
The kids said "Da that's really quite a tale
We can see you have the spirit of the Gael
And we know there's no regrets, and we're very glad you met
In Dublin Town in 1962

All our days were sunny
All our skies were blue
In Dublin Town in 1962
