Irish Goodbye Lyrics

May the road rise up to meet you

And the wind behind your back

May you find the peace you're missing

No, I couldn't give you that

Well, my body knew you were leaving

Before any blood was shed

I will voyage through the valley 'till I put this dream to rest

Oh, you did what I couldn't do

And I still blame you

Oh, my true love gone too soon

but I can't hate you

I didn't know that it was the last time

Don't know how to mourn an Irish goodbye

All that's left is tainted silver

Solitude in empty hands

And my heart can't find its keeper

Fallen crown, your broken band

Oh, you did what I couldn't do

And I still blame you

Oh, my true love gone too soon

But I can't hate you

I didn't know that it was the last time

Don't know how to mourn an Irish goodbye

Bitter side of your sweet indifference

Losing sleep while you find good riddance

Making the bed, lord knows that I wouldn't

Here lies the lament of a jaded woman

Ooh

Oh, you did what I couldn't do and I still blame you

Oh, my true love gone too soon

But I can't hate you

I didn't know that it was the last time

Don't know how to mourn an Irish goodbye

Don't know how to mourn your Irish goodbye
