All set for Saint Patrick's Day ( special posts on here as part of the celebrations )
The Fureys - The First Leaves of Autumn lyrics
As the daylight turns to starlight
And the seasons turn to change
I get the same old answers
but the questions still remain
We shared a brief but magic song
By first leaves of autumn...you were gone
Not until the rain had touched my face
Not until the first leaves fell from space
Not until that moment did I see
I never realized what you meant to me
(fiddle interlude)
From the days you filled with sunlight
To the laughter in your eyes
To the making and the breaking
Of the day you said goodbye
We shared a brief but magic song
By first leaves of autumn...you were gone
Not until the heart's defence is down
Not until some old come-all-ye comes 'round
Not until that moment did I see
Never realized what you meant to me
Not until the rain had touched my face
Not until the first leaves fell from space
Not until that moment did I see
Never realized what you meant to me
I never realized what you meant to me

Pogues
Haunted lyrics
Do you remember that sunny day?
Somewhere in London
In the middle of nowhere
Didn't have nothing to do that day
Didn't wanna do nothing anyway
You got a way of walking
You got a way of talking
And there's something about you
And now I know I never ever
Want to be without you
[Chorus:]
I want to be haunted by the ghost
I want to be haunted by the ghost
I want to be haunted by the ghost
I want to be haunted by the ghost
Of your precious love
Of your precious love
The first time I saw you,
Standing in the street
You were so cool,
You could have put out Vietnam
My girlfriends ask me, "What's he like?"
I say, "He's kind of shy,
But that's the kind of girl I am,
He's my kind of guy"
[Chorus]
I'll build my world around you
I'll bless the day that I found you
I'll stand beside you, I'll never leave
Or tell you all those lies
That you'd never believe
