Weren′t there when I needed you most

Feels like a lifetime I couldn't let go

Said "Col, let′s have one day aloneWherever you want to go, that's where we'll go"

One day to share love and revoke

To settle silence, seek penance, say woes

Ran to the waves as they broke

Biting cold thrashed across our ankle bones

Irish dreams by the sea

Where she waltzes from me

Will you smile at my face when you leave

And I′ll fall back into you, like I always do

And I′ll fall back into you, like I always do

You dared me, and I dared you so

Ran 'til we gave, ′til our pace was imposed

Beach town, my white shirt pulled low

See to my skin, cotton hanging and soaked

Sun beamed on your face in hopes

Maybe one last time I'll see you as gold

Irish dreams by the sea

Where she waltzes from me

Will you smile at my face when you leave

And I′ll fall back into you, like I always do

And I'll fall back into you, like I always do

But now it′s too late for this all

You're on your way out, I wish I had known

Held hands in your hospital cloak

Said "What have we done now?"

Eyes burning holes

Wrinkled skin, held your brittle bones

Mouth open eyes closed in unison slow

Said sorry as I held you close

The Asbury lighthouse, that's where I′ll let go

(That′s where I'll let go-oh-oh-oh-oh)

(Whoa-oh, Whoa-oh)

(That′s where I'll let go-oh-oh-oh-oh)

(Whoa-oh, Whoa-oh)

And I′ll fall back into you, like I always do

And I'll fall back into you, like I always do

And I′ll fall back into you, like I always do

And I'll fall back into you, like I always do

And I'll fall back into you, like I always do
