   I’ll paint you a picture
   Of the river in flow
   Colour in the valleys
   Where we used to go
   I’ll paint you a picture
   Of mountains and plains
   all of the places that
   We’ll go again

   All the things
   We used to do
   Paint me a picture
   Of you

   I’ll write you a letter
   With yesterdays news
   All of our friends
   And what they now do
   I’ll post you a note
   With stories of home
   Hope that you read it
   If you’re ever alone

   All of the things
   We used to do
   Paint me a picture
   Of you

   Its been a while my friend
   Remembering all the things
   We thought would never end
   Adventures we had a few
   I’ll pull on my boots
   Like I’m walking
   Like I’m talking
   And walking with you
   We’ll sing all the songs
   We used to sing
   Songs of the countryside
   Summer and spring
   We’ll remember the music
   Of where we are from
   Old ones and new ones
   And we’ll all play along

   All of the things
   We used to do
   Paint me a picture
   Of you

   Lovely song, lovely instrumentation, lovely vocals. Nice to hear the accent of a fellow Irishman.

   I love this one. It’s good to hear it again. Touching sentiment.

   Such a gentle, beautiful song. I can hear this as a soundtrack to a film. Really lovely Ian. Well done and good luck.

   All my grandfathers Donegal genes sat up and took notice when I listened to this! It connected. Enough said.

   Great arrangement, beautifully played and a sentiment everyone can relate to.
