David Boland - North Donegal lyrics

[Verse 1] There is a place, North Donegal Some of my memories are there The blonde and the brunette The girl with the short hair It's the place where I made Some of my earliest mitakes The best thing that I ever did Was getting out of that place [Verse 2] I remember the winter The springtime and the autumn But most of all those summer nights We spent in her garden And I'm going back there No matter what you say I've been invited To her wedding day [Bridge] Stones throw from you Stones throw from you Stones throw from you Stones throw from you Stones throw from you Stones throw from you Stones throw from you Stones throw from you [Verse 3] It's the lying, it's the wasting It's the cheat, it's the cheating on yourself I'll wait for love It's the d**, it's the late nights It's the bottle, bottle I love the most I'll wait for love [Chorus 1] Someone to hold One to care for When I'm old and gray and full of sleep I'll wait for love Someone to hold One to care for When I'm old and gray and full of sleep I'll wait for love [Instrumental Break] [Verse 4] The autumn, the fading light The darkening day The compensating night I walked home, left it unsaid With pounding heart, I died a distant d**h The days draw down, dwindle, scatter It all ends and none of it matters I linger on, become undone I learn my fate is to always be in love Slip and slow down, square one again [Chorus 2] I've made mistakes that I deeply regret I've made mistakes again, again, again I've made mistakes that I deeply regret I've made mistakes again, again, again I've made mistakes again, again, again I've made mistakes again, again, again I've made mistakes again, again, again
