The Whistle Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was taken back
When the bullet cracked
I did not hear the whistle blowing
Things must pass
Your eyes could look no more than laugh
A tin-can rattled 'round the bandstand
Didn't break up bad
But I got low fast
And in a taxi back to Drimnagh
I had to cry
The driver looked back, lit a smile
"Won't be the last one, son, you know that
You'll be alright, lad"
[Chorus]
But judging by the way I was feeling
You're all I'll need
I'll numb out this pain
You're all I'll need
Going off the weight of my dreaming
You're all I need
I want you this way
Oh, you're all I'll need
[Verse 2]
They said don't look back
But I had to glance
At August once
A virgin heat burned days to months
Your jeans rolled up against the sun
Canal bank, ashing out the last one
Now this old worn bend
Takes me back towards dead
Pass the flame, I'll smoke another
Lean on friends
I'll feel the shame, but no, it ends
The whistle blows and it's all over
But it's not the end
[Chorus]
But judging by the way I was feeling
You're all I'll need
I'll numb out this pain
You're all I'll need
Going off the weight of my dreaming
You're all I need
I want you this way
Oh, you're all I'll need
[Outro]
Till the edges of time
I'll keep you mine
Get out
Gave it all to you
Gave it all to you
Oh, you're all I need

‘The Whistle’ is a song about the tricks that the mind can play on you when looking back on the death of a relationship – ‘if I could only have them, I’d need or want for nothing else’. I think this type of reminiscing can be an easy salve for people – they can place all of their hopes and dreams of...
