"Aileen" lyrics

The three of us walked on down
In the sun that shone on a winter's day
Down the hill and around the bend
Past the houses of my childhood friends

And I won't let you go
So here's to you, Aileen Kane

I never said goodbye before you died
But I carry you every day
I never said goodbye before you died
And I won't let you fade away

Nothing's felt quite right since then
But none of us has given up or given in
And we took a big jetplane
Across the world to Ireland, your resting place

And I won't let you go
So here's to you, Aileen Kane

I never said goodbye before you died
But I carry you every day
I never said goodbye before you died
And I won't let you fade away

You mean more to me than anyone, than anyone
I'm talking about you
You mean more to me than anyone, anyone

And I never said goodbye before you died
And I won't let you fade away
