I don't know why you'd want to side with Welsh anyway...only about 1/5th of Wales can actually speak it, and only because of a huge revival in the 60s by nationalists who didn't want to see it die. But since I'm a nice guy, I'm willing to offer you a partial win on the matter.

The most recent census figures (2001) presented in "Main Statistics about Welsh by the Welsh Language Board, indicate 582,400 (20.8% of the population of Wales in households or communal establishments) were able to speak Welsh and 457,946 (16.3%) can speak, read and write it. These 2001 figures mark a substantial - 9% - increase when compared with the figures of 508,100 (18.7%) for 1991. Welsh speaking is on the rise,and is being taught more in our schools as a drive an initiative from the welsh government,and many look at it as a good move career wise,and not just from a cultural standpoint. The problem from any decline in the past can be attributed in part to and increase in english speaking residents moving into wales,partly as well to those moving in from england into wales being able to out price locals out of available housing in and amongst rural communities. So they may take our lives, but they'll never take our FREEEEDOM!, Last edited by jase; 03-12-2010 at 08:18 AM. | ||

Now to me i would be happy,(i know there can be tears of hapyness)and well would cry tears,being away from home...yeah ? no ? hmm lol. I find it interesting as well the way you word,"and when I cry no tears deliver" as if you feel you should be more upset than you really are,and cannot get why you not crying a river. Don't take what i say to critical...it's just attempts of lyric writing can be quite revealing on time's.It sounds like a hobo song....with the way they used to have camps out by the tracks,small communities,as it's the only way i could imagine you finding anyone along a river like that at 4am.
