CHRIS REA - Shamrock Diaries lyrics

rate me

In waves of people you can lose your feet<br>You've got to stay hard, to the ground<br>It gets so easy now to lose your way<br>When you're ever outward bound<br>A church bell ringing in the fading light<br>Stops you dead like a cold steel wall<br>The ghost of yesteryears is toughing you<br>And as sure as God you'll fall<br>And I see me and I see you<br>I see it all just like it used to be<br>And all the reasons why it started out<br>Hit you hard with every bell<br>The choir practice in the empty hall<br>Is a sound that you know so well<br>Like something lost inside your overcoat<br>You find it later, by mistake<br>You lost it all a thousand years ago<br>And you pray it's not too late<br>And I see me and I see you<br>I see it all just like it used to be<br>And I see me and I see you<br>I see it all just like a diary<br><br>Now I remember everything<br>Yea I remember how it used to be<br>With every note that choirboy sings<br>And I see me and I see you<br>I see it all just like it used to be
