Middle Of The Island Lyrics - Sinead Oconnor

A song Sinead did together 

with Cristy Moore on Cristy's 

album "Voyage" 

----------------------------- 

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
