let's go back

It’s been a while since the two of us talked 

About a week since the day that you walked 

Knowing things would never be the same 

With your empty heart and mine full of pain 

So explain to me, how it came to this 

Let’s take it back to the night we kissed 

It was Dublin city on a Friday night 

With vodkas and coke, I was Guinness all night

We were sitting with our backs against the world 

Saying things that we thought but never heard 

Who would have thought it would end up like this? 

But everything we talked about is gone 

And the only chance we have of moving on 

Was trying to take it back before it all went wrong 

Before the worst 

Before we met 

Before our hearts decided it’s time to love again 

Before today 

Before too long 

Let’s try and take it back before it all went wrong 

There was a time that we’d stay up all night 

Best friends, yeah, talking til the daylight 

Took the joys alongside the pain 

With not much to lose but so much to gain 

Are you hearing me? Cuz I don’t wanna miss 

That you would drift on memory bliss 

It was Grafton street, on a rainy night 

I was down on one knee and you were mine for life 

We were thinking we would never be apart 

With your name tattooed across my heart 

Who would have thought it would end up like this? 

But everything we talked about is gone 

And the only chance we have of moving on 

Was trying to take it back before it all went wrong
