Ten days of the year, it's as warm as this

There's our wedding on the shore as the morning mist clears

I turned to you, as I shed a tear

Thinking of everything that lead us here

There was something in your eye that I had never seen

And I've known you'd be the one since we were 17

So nervous, I was shaking as I took my chance

So darling, could I have this dance?

Oh, the first dance is lifting us up

Watching the floor from above

Holding your dress as you're tripping up

I'm pulling you closer, oh

Grá mo chroí, my dear, my love

Just couldn't believe my luck

You're squeezing my hand as they call us up

For the first dance of us

Five years to the day we were 22

Said, "I've loved you since the moment I laid eyes on you"

Take my hand, take my knee, take my whole life too

You said the answer I already knew

We were waltzing 'round the room, swaying hand in hand

As your father sang Mo Ghràidh with the wedding band

Take your partners to the floor, heel toe, heel toe

Arm on arm and row on row

Oh, the first dance is lifting us up

Watching the floor from above

I'm holding your dress as you're tripping up

I'm pulling you closer, oh

Grá mo chroí, my dear, my love

Just couldn't believe my luck

You're squeezing my hand as they call us up

For the first dance of us

The first dance of us

Ten days of the year, it's as cold as this

And I took you to the shore, where we had our first kiss

Standing on the sand where we made our vows

If only they could see us now

You asked me if I'd love you when you're old and grey

I still look at you the same as on our wedding day

Still thankful I was drunk enough to take my chance

Oh darling, could I have this dance?

Oh, the first dance is lifting us up

Watching the floor from above

I'm holding your dress as you're tripping up

I'm pulling you closer, oh

Grá mo chroí, my dear, my love

Just couldn't believe my luck

You're squeezing my hand as they call us up

For the first dance of, oh

The first dance is lifting us up

Watching the floor from above

I'm holding your dress as you're tripping up

I'm pulling you closer, oh

Grá mo chroí, my dear, my love

Just couldn't believe my luck

You're squeezing my hand as they call us up

For the first dance of us

The first dance of us

The first dance of us
