Irene
No one told me that I’d feel this way,
When I’m down on my luck and just me to blame.
No one told me that I’d feel like this,
Such a heavy soul with no outlet for it.
Am I crazy baby? or am I just a little young?
It’s been hazy lately but now I’m comin’ on strong.
Irene.
Sweet companion, illusive in the night,
See through in the day, in my dreams you’re black and white.
So clear in my mind but so out of my control,
Show me your skin and a face I want to know.
My love for you lingers like a fire in the night,
Trying my best won’t give up with out a fight.
Irene.
Irene.
It’s been so long since I felt like I should,
Can’t seem to find my way from this wild wild wood.
No one told me how rejection wounds,
Ain’t no answers in a bottle, ain’t no answers on the moon.
Is it too late for me? Did I leave it too long?
Is there nobody listening to my song?
Irene.
Irene.
Irene, I still love you.
All my life I’ve been doing as I should,
Following on from a light that shone,
Never straying from what’s good
For me there’s just one answer,
Only one way to be found;
My woman by my side,
And a million in the crowd.
No one told me how to speak my mind,
Just a silent wish just to us two confined,
Since when does a year slip into an hour?
This taste in my mouth, well, you know, it just got sour,
And I look to you for all of my answers,
Nothin’ left I can do for this here romancer.
Irene.
Irene.
Irene, I still love you.
So you can see it’s a painful dilemma,
I’m losing my mind under the weight of this weather,
Two paths either side of a mountain top,
And I believe the twain do meet and you get back all you lost,
And I pray and I pray for someone’s wings to come and guide me,
This heart ache’s too strong Irene, Irene, Irene.
Irene.
Irene.
Irene, I still love you.
Irene.
Irene.
Irene, I still love you.
