Tir Eile - Saint Sister

Just like all the times before

I find you staring at the door

If I leave will you love me more?

Well I can’t answer that

And just like all those other men

Whose heart is taken by the pen

If I leave will you write me then?

Well I can’t promise that

And won’t it hurt if I refuse

To give you love you’d never lose?

Give you love you’d never use

I can answer that

And won’t it hurt if I resist

And take the love you’d never miss?

Hide the hand you’d never kiss

I can promise that

Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah

Paralysed through wide awake

I give you love you’d never take

Memories you will not make

Inside that clever head

Your sickness turned out to be

All in your head and never me

Tell me once more how you’re free

Let’s put this to bed
