Jonny Lang - Irish Angel Lyrics

Jonny Lang - Irish Angel Video

In the fall of the year

She flew across the ocean

To ireland, the land of her fathers

When we said goodbye,

A tear was in her eye

I lost her then and there

My irish angel

 

The first letter came

She said she liked it there

And how much she wished

I was there with her

She wrote it on a hill in

A gentle irish way

I saw her in my mind

My irish angel

 

I wrote her back and then

There was no second letter

Just the silence of the snow

That fell around me

 

I let her down i know

The day i let her go

Now she's found someone else

My irish angel

 

The first time i saw her

My heart went in a spin

When they speak of love

They call it falling

It was like i held my breath

Til i laid eyes on her agian

So beatiful she was

My irish angel

 

And when a storming glance

Lead to a storming kiss

I thought i knew the

Chance that i was taking

In all i never knew

A love as strong as this

Or what it was to feel

My own heart breaking

 

So now i raise the glass

And then i raise another

One to forget

One to remember

It was just a dream

Of how things could of been

If i hadn't lost my irish angel
