amble - mary's pub lyrics

[verse 1]
she put it right between my lips
and i bit down with the light
and i asked her had she anything
she handed me a light
and with that light i took a drag
and i watched the world go by
you were mine and i was yours
and our limit was the sky

[chorus]
and we watched time go by
well i told her ask me anything
she asked me how to cry
and when i think of you i know
forever i will be
happy as the fool because together we are free

[verse 2]
well we cantered on by the statue
where once phil lynott stood
met by his [?] being hoisted outside mary’s pub
he’d never seen the like before
rare seemed so daft
and the cobbles were lit up by the enchantment of your laugh
[chorus]
and we watched time go by
well i told her ask me anything
she asked me how to cry
and when i think of you i know forever i will be
happy as the fool because together we are free

[verse 3]
well we watched the buskers play a tune in lower grafton street
and i tried to grab your finger but i wasn’t so discreet
you smiled and braced my hand and pulled me into some old bar
and we drank a drop and we twirled and talked about our lives so far

[chorus]
and we watched time go by
well i told her ask me anything
she asked me how to cry
and when i think of you i know forever i will be
happy as the fool because together we are free

[verse 4]
well he swallowed down his last drop
and began to feel the heat
and he gestured to the bar man that it was his time to leave
with a cap upon his head he thought of home in skibbereen
said we were the finest couple that his eyes had ever seen
[chorus]
and we watched time go by
well i told her ask me anything
she asked me how to cry
and when i think of you i know forever i will be
happy as the fool because together we are free

[verse 5]
and as she boards her plane back to her home in amsterdam
she’ll study for the year, before turning to her land
she said she loves a man and he is stationed far away
with him her precious love, she says, forever it will stay

[chorus]
and we watched time go by
well i told her ask me anything
she asked me how to cry
and when i think of you i know forever i will be
happy as the fool because together we are free
