Where Did You Meet Your Love?

Where did you meet your love?
By the gasworks wall

Where did you dream a dream?
By the old canal

I take it you kissed your girl?
By the factory wall

Nice. Tell me, is it dark?
Clouds are drifting across the moon

Any animals prowling out there?
Cats, on their beat

Any people springing from the streets this night?
A girl

Did ya hear anything?
A siren - from the docks

And what did you see?
A train

Did it do anything trains don't usually do?
It set the night on fire

Wow, you must've been able to smell stuff on the smokey wind then?
I smelled the spring

So what are you going to do?
I'm going to make me a big sharp axe

That's handy - with shining steel?
Tempered in the fire

And you're ok with me asking you all these questions?
I'll chop you down like an old dead tree

The (arguably) more useful Frequently Asked Questions section of the website has been updated.

Handy Irish Phrase: Cá bhfuil eolas ar an bhféile sin ar fáil? (Where is information available about that festival?)
