Middle of the Island - Christy Moore

Everybody knew, nobody said

A week ago last Tuesday

She was just fifteen years

When she reached her full therm

She went to a grotto

In just a field

In the middle of the island

To deliver herself

Her baby died

She died

A week ago last Tuesday

It was a sad slow stupid death for them both

Everybody knew, nobody said

At a grotto

In a field

In the middle of the island

It was a sad slow stupid death for them both

Everybody knew, nobody said
