We were just three 26 year olds Sitting in a bar I was daydreaming about being a star And he said he might be Batman That I might doubt it but he can Make me believe As he wipes his nose with his sleeve And I was tickled by the games we play As Rock Paper Scissors goes my way And Sinéad is on my other side She’s kind of the way I hide My true heart from you Coz I’m scared you might want to Take this down below And I’m a no show When it comes to that I just want you to love me back As we talk about Kurt Cobain and Amy Winehouse And I’m hearing the words just drop from your mouth In a year from now We’ll be in that age somehow Coz we were all born on the 9-0 And I don’t want to wake up though To you gone And I’m drunk and so long Rings in my head as I write an essay about you Sinéad’s asleep and it’s a quarter past two And I write your name on a bar mat Coz I wanna remember you like that And there’s no way I’ll see you again But I catalogue a range of men And you made the cut I touched your hand and it was what You didn’t say that led me on And I’m singing my own song As I reminisce and I might have cried Coz there are people I’ve loved who’ve died And it’s more than nothing just to know You can love someone who let you go And all I know is the Stillorgan Road Is somewhere the traffic slowed As it went by your house And you live with your sister and your mouth Looks inviting But the in-fighting In my brain pushes me away I just want to remember you, okay In two page and a half of semi slurred ink Will be a reminder of someone that I think Is pretty awesome cool You’re even better than learning in school All that I’ve come to be I hope that you’re reunited with me In some future dream I grasp you and I pull a seam
