Sometimes I still hear the sound of two drunk men
Echoing through an old song
I still remember the sticky old tables
Smell of old ale on the floor
Though it took to see my own home from an airplane
To realise it's all that I want
And I had to leave home to see what was out there
Always had a foot out the door
And although overseas, I can still feel the fire
Of that dirty old town and it burns
Oh, d'fhág mé mo chroí where she's waiting for me
'Cause she knows that one day I'll return
I know it feels like I left in a hurry
But that's just how she taught me goodbyes
Oh, d'fhág mé mo chroí where she's waiting for me
And I wish I could be there tonight
Oh, I wish I could be there tonight
I miss the faces and I watch the stories
From strangers that feel just like home
I use the same old one-liners you taught me
While drinking on till the bar closed
But now when I go home I sleep in a guest room
With photos of me in that house
I miss the days when we ran through the garden
The way that my mother would shout
And although overseas, I can still feel the fire
Of that dirty old town and it burns
Oh, d'fhág mé mo chroí where she's waiting for me
'Cause she knows that one day I'll return
I know it feels like I left in a hurry
But that's just how she taught me goodbyes
Oh, d'fhág mé mo chroí where she's waiting for me
And I wish I could be there tonight
Oh, I wish I could be there tonight
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
I know it feels like I left in a hurry
But that's just how she taught me goodbyes
Oh, d'fhág mé mo chroí where she's waiting for me
And I wish I could be there tonight
Oh, I wish I could be there tonight
