Lyrics

Collar up the cutting wind is blowing down the river
Kids begging on O’Connell bridge, how can they stand the cold?
People stray from matinees all starry-eyes and in a daze
From paradise in the picturehouse they spill out on the road.

Got an empty feeling deep inside, it hit me when we said goodbye
I can’t find a thing to say, I wish to god I could smile

This love was like a hurricane no one could stop no one could tame
It fuelled the fire and fanned the flames, what a nice surprise
But a silver cloud came drifting in, a satin shroud it covered in
I never found the secrets that were hidden in her eyes.

Got an empty feeling deep inside, it hit me when we said goodbye
I can’t find a thing to say, I wish to god I could smile

Now it’s time to lock up shop it’d six o’clock right on the dot
Shutters clatter to the ground like big steel overcoats
Right now this place is not for me, home is where I want to be
Surrounded by the memories of things we used to say

Got an empty feeling deep inside, it hit me when we said goodbye
I can’t find a thing to say, I wish to god I could smile

I’m losing you
