American Wake - Black 47[00:00:00]

Open up the door she's standin' there[00:00:01]

With the smile in her eyes but the gray in her hair[00:00:05]

Betrays the fact you strayed far from home[00:00:09]

With your drinkin' your smokin' you're whorin' around[00:00:13]

Sit down by the fire put your feet on the grate[00:00:19]

Spend the night reminiscin' 'til the hour grows late[00:00:23]

Always remember at the end of the day[00:00:28]

You can always go home you just can't stay[00:00:32]

Then it's off to the pub for to see your old mates[00:00:53]

Ah they all look older but nothin' has changed[00:00:57]

And you drink 'til you're nearly out of your head[00:01:01]

Hey what are yez all doin' snakin' off to bed [00:01:05]

Then you're outside her flat but she's no longer there[00:01:11]

The tears scald your eyes as you think of her hair[00:01:16]

In the photo they sent you of her wedding day[00:01:20]

You can always go home you just can't stay[00:01:24]

Then you see her at Mass with the kids at her side[00:01:45]

And it all comes back in the blink of an eye[00:01:49]

The tears and the laughter the love and the lies[00:01:54]

And that dress she wore the night you said Goodbye[00:01:57]

Then her husband says "It's good to have you back"[00:02:04]

And she smiles for a moment and squeezes your hand[00:02:08]

But you know what she's thinkin' she doesn't have to say[00:02:12]

You can always go home you just can't stay[00:02:16]

And you swear to yourself time and time again[00:02:29]

It was all in the past she don't mean anything[00:02:33]

Now your life is full of laughter and bars[00:02:37]

What did you leave behind just the sun the moon and the stars [00:02:42]

Then it's up in the mornin' at the crack of dawn[00:03:07]

With your stomach churnin' she says "Come on now Sean[00:03:11]

You'll be late for the plane" but that crack in her voice[00:03:15]

Betrays the fact that you made your choice[00:03:19]

A long time ago now there's no turnin' back[00:03:26]

'Cause last night you had your American wake[00:03:30]

And the bells are still ringin' can't you hear what they say [00:03:34]

You can always go home you just can't stay[00:03:38]

Say goodbye say goodbye say goodbye[00:04:00]

In the wind the river and the pourin' rain[00:04:05]

One last drink one last drink one last drink[00:04:16]

At Shannon Airport then we're outa here[00:04:21]

History around here catch you again next year[00:04:25]

Landin' at Kennedy landin' at Kennedy landin' at Kennedy[00:04:33]

All you feel is the pain[00:04:38]

But it's too late it's too late 'cause last night you had[00:04:41]

You had your American wake[00:04:46]
