You made plans to leave a thousand times I know And a thousand times I should have let you go But each time I'll always beg you back somehow If I'd left it up to you it'd all be over now It'd all be over now cept the crying I'd be used to spending all my nights alone Wish I'd found the way to let you go somehow If I'd left it up to you it'd all be over now It'd all be over now cept the crying I'd be used to spending all my nights alone Wish I'd found the way to let you go somehow If I'd left it up to you it'd all be over now

[Verse #1:] When I look in your eyes, I feel something I can't explain Like I've been searching my whole life for you, babe Completely lost in the moments, completely lost sense of time There's no better feeling, baby, I can find [Pre-Chorus:] Cos this ain't no temporary love Like the ones they show on TV Well, this is the real thing, baby As far as the eye can see [Chorus:] If you were here with me We're laying underneath the stars I would do anything If you were here with me If only we could get that far It would mean everything [Verse #2:] Once in a lifetime does this sort of love come around The missing piece you keep searching for, finally you found I really hope that you feel the same way that I do Cos, baby, I would be so lost without [Pre-Chorus:] Cos this ain't no temporary love Like the ones they show on TV Well, this is the real thing, baby As far as the eye can see [Chorus:] If you were here with me We're laying underneath the stars I would do anything If you were here with me If only we could get that far It would mean everything [Ad-Lib:] Ooh Oh, whoa, whoa [Guitar Solo] [Pre-Chorus:] Cos this ain't no temporary love Like the ones they show on TV Yeah, this is the real thing, baby As far as the eye can see [Chorus:] If you were here with me Laying underneath the stars I would do anything If you were here with me If only we could get that far It would mean everything [Ad-Lib:] Oh, whoa Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Oh Oh, no Hey, yeah Ooh Ooh

Time passes I accept the blame And I accept that you might never care to see me again At least we can shake off some shame Still I quiver like a dying leaf in a violent wind I don't wish to be excused for this My disguise and my excuses, they have worn so thin May I ask, and answer honestly Oh, what would you have done if you were me? How could it go so wrong so quickly? Oh, what would you do if you were me? Don't assume that I have found this easy Oh, how would you feel if you were me? Time passes Kills everything In its path, and then it buries us in history Some bits, some bits seem to stick Oh, I thought that you and I could be a timeless thing And I have to ask, please answer honestly What would you have done if you were me? How could it go so wrong so quickly? Oh, what would you do if you were me? Don't assume that I have found this easy How would you feel if you were me?

They say mother earth is breathing With each wave that finds the shore Her soul rises in the evening For to open twilight's door Her eyes are the stars in heaven Watching o'er us all the while And her heart it is in Ireland Deep within the Emerald Isle We are forty against hundreds In someone else's bloody war We know not why we're fighting Or what we're dying for They will storm us in the morning When the sunlight turns to sky Death is waiting for its dance now Fate has sentenced us to die Ireland I am coming home I can see your rolling fields of green And fences made of stone I am reaching out won't you take my hand I'm coming home Ireland Oh the captain he lay bleeding I can hear him calling me These men are yours now for the leading Show them to their destiny As I look up all around me I see the ragged tired and torn I tell them to make ready 'Cause we're not waiting for the morn Ireland I am coming home I can see your rolling fields of green And fences made of stone I am reaching out won't you take my hand I'm coming home Ireland Now the fog is deep and heavy As we forge the dark and fear We can hear their horses breathing As in silence we draw near There are no words to be spoken Just a look to say good-bye I draw a breath and night is broken As I scream our battle cry Ireland I am coming home I can see your rolling fields of green And fences made of stone I am reaching out won't you take my hand I'm coming home Ireland We were forty against hundreds

I was eight and he was late in life But still as sharp as that old Case knife That lives inside the pocket of his working shirt They never made a car he couldn't fix They never spent long up on bricks Always charged a little less than he was worth Ain't too many like him on this earth People say I'm like my dad Hey, I can't argue with that After all we're both cut from that same Carhartt canvas cloth So if we look you in the eye and shake your hand too tight Well, the truth is we're both trying to be Like the man who raised the man who raised me He took and taught me how to cast a line And the way to say grace at suppertime And how to handle and respect a loaded gun Heard the war made Grandpa tough Guess the grandkids softened him up 'Cause he never really was that hard on us Nothing like my aunts and uncles claim he was People say I'm like my dad Hey, I can't argue with that After all we're both cut from that same Carhartt canvas cloth So if we look you in the eye and shake your hand too tight Well, the truth is we're both trying to be Like the man who raised the man who raised me How to keep and treat a woman And cherish fifty years of moments People say I'm like my dad Hey, I can't argue with that After all we're both cut from that same Carhartt canvas cloth And when that sad day rolls around and he's lowered in the ground I hope they all can look at me and see The man who raised the man who raised me He raised me

The day that I came into the world You finally got your baby girl With me in your arms, right next to your heart Beatin' like a drum You started to shake, but it was okay Cause God knows I was In good hands Safe every day right there in the care of a good man Lookin' back now it's easy to see that You're the reason I am and have always been in Good hands They held me to help when I was hurt And held mine to climb the steps to church You couldn't make the smallest mistake Not in my eyes I understand how lucky I am To walk through this life In good hands Safe every day right there in the care of a good man Lookin' back now it's easy to see that You're the reason I am, and have always been in Good hands This is the day you give me away But we'll be alright Cause daddy I know you're letting me go Knowin' that I'm In good hands Safe every day right there in the care of a good man Lookin' back now it's easy to see that You're the reason I am, and have always been in Good hands I thank God for good hands I thank God for good hands

If my first love hadn't broke my heart If I'd never lost that job Or picked up a guitar And if I hadn't made that friend If I didn't get to play That dive bar that weekend I'd still be in my hometown If I was never let down I never would have moved to The city where I saw you Strumming on a bar stool Singing something old school Knew it when I heard it All of it was worth it Cause if I hadn't gone through Everything I went through I never would have met you I never would have met you If an ex just would've loved me right If I hadn't got that gig To sing to you that night Back then girl if I had Everything I wanted I never would have moved to The city where I saw you Strumming on a bar stool Singing something old school Knew it when I heard it All of it was worth it Cause if I hadn't gone through Everything I went through I never would have met you I never would have met you Can't be mad at the past I had One little change, good or bad I never would have moved to The city where I saw you I never would have moved to The city where I saw you Strumming on a bar stool Singing something old school Knew it when I heard it All of it was worth it Cause if I hadn't gone through Everything I went through I never would have met you I never would have met you
