Irish Goodbye Songtext
von Somebody's Child

Well, you′re stuck in a rut
Holding on to whoever you met
Your head crooked to the rest
And you thought you knew everything, but
Now you're still just figuring it out
Maybe it′s part of you, yet

How dare you talk to your mother like that?
I never even heard you with regret (uh-ah)
Now everybody is laughing at ya
But something else is really going on

Oh, put it to bed, you had a taste for it
It's hard to explain, so I wrote this song for you
Made it out alive, but let it be said that you
You found me a joke, I'm glad I could make you laugh


And you thought you were better than that
Your heart beats like the ocean
You left the party late
You never were as Irish with goodbyes (and I)

Oh, put it to bed, you had a taste for it
It′s hard to explain, so I wrote this song for you
Made it out alive, but let it be said that you
You found me a joke, I′m glad I could make you laugh

I feel your arms around me, we're on Fifth Avenue
I wanted it so badly, but something else was true
You haven′t reached your baseline, your heart's still on the fence
But everything I do is for your love
Oh, put it to bed, you had a taste for it
It′s hard to explain, so I wrote this song for you

Oh, put it to bed for me now
It's hard to explain, so I wrote this song for you
Made it out alive, but let it be said that you
You found me a joke, I′m glad I could make you laugh

I'm glad I could make you laugh
Oh, yeah, I
