Lyrics Irish Goodbye - Stephen Kellogg

Irish Goodbye

Remember when we got high behind the house
By the garage so the kids would not find out?
The cat’s on Prozac and no one seems to care
The party’s packed but you feel like no one’s there
You were born with everything you need
So, wear that heart of yours on both your sleeves
A mother’s holding her baby on the plane
The kid is crying, the businessman complains
You hear the whispers and see the eye rolls too
I guess we all got some growing up to do
You were born with everything you need
So, wear that heart of yours on both your sleeves
They’ll get the best and worst of you
There’ll be some days that you can’t get through
But please, wear that heart of yours on both your sleeves
You give your heart to someone because it’s yours to give
And only when they break it do you realize what you did
There is a sword that’s hanging right above all our heads
It is suspended, it is suspended, it is suspended by a spider web
So, check your phone every minute for an hour
Irish goodbye, the greatest superpower
You were born with everything you need
So, wear that heart of yours on both your sleeves
You have got the best and worst of me
So, wear that heart of yours on both your sleeves
Both your sleeves
Both your sleeves
Both your sleeves
