Jonny Lang "My Irish Angel" |
In the fall of the year She flew across the ocean To Ireland, the land of her fathers When we said goodbye, a tear was in her eye I lost her then and there, my Irish angel The first letter came, she said she loved everything And how much she wished I was there with her She wrote it on the hill, and then I shared her Irish rain The summer in my mind, my Irish angel I wrote her back and then There was no second letter Just the silence of the snow that fell around me I let her down, I know The day I let her go Now she's found someone else, my Irish angel When I first saw her, my heart went into spinning When they speak of love they call it falling It was like I held my breath 'til I laid eyes on her again So beautiful, she was my Irish angel And when the storm at last, turned to a stormy kiss I thought I knew the chance that I was takin And all I never knew, love as strong as this Or what it was, to feel my own heart breaking So now I raise a glass and then I raise another One to forget and one to remember And one just to dream, of how things could have been, If I hadn't lost my Irish angel Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
