Irish Goodbye

Was I too much, or was I a threat

To the vision you had that you hadn't found yet?

I gave you some space 'cause I wanted to see

If I mattered enough, would you come back to me?

No face-to-face, no eye-to-eye

I thought this meant more, but I guess that's alright

I'll forgive your faults if you'll forgive mine

But it's hard to forgive your Irish goodbye

You turned into a ghost, I wish you the best

Maybe one day you'll know I was not like the rest

I want to respect you, and you know I tried

But there ain't much respect in an Irish goodbye

No face-to-face, no eye-to-eye

I thought this meant more, but I guess that's alright

I'll forgive your faults if you'll forgive mine

But it's hard to forgive your Irish goodbye

Goodbye, goodbye, Irish goodbye

It's hard to forgive your Irish goodbye

Don't know if I can, maybe I'll try

But I'll never forget your Irish goodbye
