Lyrics Irish Hour - Saint Sister

Irish Hour

We lost a yesterday
It was quick and quiet
We were watching Christmas movies
Somewhere outside Paris
And I didn’t even hear it
A bookend of sorts
Standing over breakfast
In a holiday resort
Tried my best to lift you
We were stuck between two floors
Pacing in the stairwell
Haven’t you been here before
And I didn’t even notice
With all this time to kill
Let’s go get your things
We’ll lay them out along the window sill
In between
Washing machines
You lay down on the bed sheets
And I pretended not to see
The way you gripped the edges
And I never thought to ask
How you managed the rest
We were doing laundry
The night I knew you best
We lost a yesterday
It was quick and quiet
We were playing Irish Hour
Somewhere outside Paris
