[Verse 1]

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

Oh, it took me to see my own home from an airplane

To realise it's all that I want

And I had to leave, oh, to see what was out there

Always had a foot out the door

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

I miss the faces and "Hi, what's the stories?"

From strangers that feel just like home

I use the same old one liners you taught me

While drinking until the bar close

But now when I go home I sleep in the 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

[Chorus]

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

[Break]

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

[Outro]

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
