When Aoife was thirteen
She had no need to wait
Each day at half past three
He'd be at the school gates
A long drive in the rain
Kept dry inside his car
No air can permeate
Inside of this bell jar
He'd stick in a cassette
He played Sweet Caroline
He used to sing along
It helped him pass the time
Tháinig sé isteach ina saol go tobann
Mar ghála borb, nó tuile abhann
Ba é grá an mhamaí é, sula raibh Aoife aici
Ach chonaic sí go raibh paisean eile ina chroí
He'd never quite moved on
From how he saw Niamh
When both of them wеre young
But in Aoife, he could see
Thе shadow of her mom
And of his youthful dreams
He thought he'd found a way
To relive them easily
Grabbed Aoife by surprise
"If you say a word, you die"
He played Sweet Caroline
She had to stop herself from crying
He'd stick in a cassette
He played Sweet Caroline
He used to sing along
It helped him pass the time
