[Verse 1]
We lended our heavy hearts
Motors with broken parts
We had a deck of cards
It was a start
We'd sit out in the sun
And wait for our skin to turn
You would ask for truth
And I'd look for something to burn
[Chorus]
Oh, we walked in a hallowed place back then
On the edge of Dublin, the edge of May and June
Oh, to live in a paper house again
Where we grew by the light of the moon
[Verse 2]
Often we took the train
The sky pacing white to grey
When you or I would leave
And the other would stay
We were all that we had
And breathed in each others words
I would ask for truth and
You'd look for something to burn
We lended our heavy hearts
Motors with broken parts
We had a deck of cards
It was a start
We'd sit out in the sun
And wait for our skin to turn
You would ask for truth
And I'd look for something to burn
[Chorus]
Oh, we walked in a hallowed place back then
On the edge of Dublin, the edge of May and June
Oh, to live in a paper house again
Where we grew by the light of the moon
[Verse 2]
Often we took the train
The sky pacing white to grey
When you or I would leave
And the other would stay
We were all that we had
And breathed in each others words
I would ask for truth and
You'd look for something to burn
