Was I too much or was I a threatTo the vision you had, that you hadn't found yet?I gave you some space, 'cause I wanted to seeIf I mattered enough, would you come back to me?
No face-to-face, no eye-to-eyeI thought this meant more, but I guess that's alrightI'll forgive your faults if you'll forgive mineBut it's hard to forgive your Irish goodbye
You turned into a ghost, I wish you the bestMaybe one day you'll know I was not like the restI want to respect you, and you know I triedBut there ain't much respect in an Irish goodbye
No face-to-face, no eye-to-eyeI thought this meant more, but I guess that's alrightI'll forgive your faults if you'll forgive mineBut it's hard to forgive your Irish goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, Irish goodbyeIt's hard to forgive your Irish goodbyeDon't know if I can, maybe I'll tryBut I'll never forget your Irish goodbye
