I was down at the bottom half of some old bar in Chinatown Me shoes had brought the rain and took the space for lookin´ down As drunk as love is lethal, I spun a lady ´round
And I kissed her ´neath the waking of a Dublin City sky
She threw her shoes into her bag and danced just like a dream Her face was rubied up just like no sun I´d ever seen She said I was a phoney, I said I could be mean And treated her so badly I made my baby cry
The January markets filled the cold air with the sound The boys all full of laughter and their pocket with the pound And in the foggy dew, I saw you throwing shapes around It was underneath the waking of a Dublin City sky
And it all makes sour To watch my lover wrap her and around the flag of powder Hurry now you will To know you is to love you and I love you even still But we´ll never truly be We trip along disaster in the whirlwind of the free Altogether now
