Before the Worst
It's been a while since the two of us talkedAbout a week since the day that you walkedKnowing things would never be the sameWith your empty heart and mine full of pain
So explain to me, how it came to thisLet's take it back to the night we kissedIt was Dublin city on a Friday nightWith vodkas and coke, I was Guinness all night
We were sitting with our backs against the worldSaying things that we thought but never heardWho would have thought it would end up like this?
But everything we talked about is goneAnd the only chance we have of moving onWas trying to take it back before it all went wrong
Before the worstBefore we metBefore our hearts decide it's time to love againBefore too lateBefore too longLet's try to take it back before it all went wrong
There was a time that we'd stay up all nightBest friends, yeah, talking til the daylightTook the joys alongside the painWith not much to lose but so much to gain
Are you hearing me? 'Cause I don't wanna missThat you would drift on memory blissIt was Grafton street, on a rainy nightI was down on one knee and you were mine for life
We were thinking we would never be apartWith your name tattooed across my heartWho would have thought it would end up like this?
But everything we talked about is goneAnd the only chance we have of moving onWas trying to take it back before it all went wrong
Before the worstBefore we metBefore our hearts decide it's time to love againBefore too lateBefore too longLet's try to take it back before it all went wrong
If these clouds don't clearThen we'll rise above it, we'll rise above itHeaven's gate is so near, come walk me throughJust like we used to, just like we used to, yeah
Let's take it back before it all went wrong
Before the worstBefore we metBefore our hearts decide it's time to love againBefore too lateBefore too longLet's try to take it back before it all went wrong
Let's try to take it back before it all went wrong
