Shamrock Diaries

                                  In waves of people you can lose your feet

You've got to stay hard, to the ground

It gets so easy now to lose your way

When you're ever outward bound

A church bell ringing in the fading light

Stops you dead like a cold steel wall

The ghost of yesteryear's is toughing you

And as sure as God you'll fall

And I see me and I see you

I see it all just like it used to be

And all the reasons why it started out

Hit you hard with every bell

The choir practice in the empty hall

Is a sound that you know so well

Like something lost inside your overcoat

You find it later, by mistake

You lost it all a thousand years ago

And you pray it's not too late

And I see me and I see you

I see it all just like it used to be

And I see me and I see you

I see it all just like a diary



Now I remember everything

Yea I remember how it used to be

With every note that choirboy sings

And I see me and I see you

I see it all just like it used to be
