[Verse]
I went down to MacCurtain Street Station
Where I first said my last goodbye
If love was there, it was thin in the air
It only came here to die
I was only sixteen when I found her
Still wrapped up in my pride
Goodnight and God-guard you forever
Write to me won’t you goodbye
[Chorus]
So softly I then kissed her pale lips
Was the first time, like the last?
I don’t know why I treat you so kind
When you’re always putting me last
In walks desperation, across up-on my wall
A tired religious vocation and a cross at the end of it all

I went down to MacCurtain Street Station
Where I first said my last goodbye
If love was there, it was thin in the air
It only came here to die
I was sick as a dog when I found her
Still wrapped up in my pride
Goodnight and God-guard you forever
Write to me won’t you goodbye
[Chorus]
So softly I then kissed her pale lips
Was the first time, like the last?
I don’t know why I treat you so kind
When you’re always putting me last
In walks desperation, across up-on my wall
A tired religious vocation and a cross at the end of it all
So softly I then kissed her pale lips
Was the first time, like the last?
I don’t know why I treat you so kind
When you’re always putting me last
In walks desperation, across upon my wall
A tired religious vocation and a cross at the end of it all
