|
I wore out my welcome as the days grew thin |
|
In this Belfast town |
|
It's like |
|
I've been waitin' 'til my life begins |
|
Love comes around |
|
I wander through the streets |
|
And I see them look away |
|
The wind hits my bones as they whisper your name |
|
I go out walking in the cold |
|
Irish rain |
|
Fed up with the landlord comin' down my door |
|
With his poison gaze |
|
I've stared out his window and |
|
I've walked the floor |
|
Of this sorry place |
|
I'll take comfort in the cold |
|
Until I find my faith again |
|
Oh God knows |
|
I've tried but |
|
I just can't fit in |
|
I go out walking in the cold |
|
Irish rain |
|
What I'd give to see the sun on your face |
|
To lose myself, in a long embrace |
|
I'd love to hear the band start to play |
|
As you turn me around, oh |
|
I long for the day |
|
The last of the ramblin' boys has lost his way |
|
In these broken times |
|
They sold off your story and they stole your rage |
|
With this heart of mine |
|
They pulled you from your sleep |
|
And they covered up your name |
|
Now on Sundays they pray to see you again |
|
I go out walking in the cold |
|
Irish rain |
|
I go out walking in the cold |
|
Irish rain |
|
I go out walking in the cold |
|
Irish rain, in the rain |
