"Irish Eyes" lyrics

Yeah, I remember you as a spring night on the south side of Boston
Every time I would step on the ledge, you were right there to stop me
And I'm missing you but I know that I'm right where I should be
And I made it now but I still wish that you could see

Yeah, I got your Irish eyes, and people say I'm looking like you all the time
So play this lullaby when you're feeling down and we gon' be alright
Yeah, I got your Irish eyes, and people say I'm looking like you all the time
So play this lullaby when you're feeling down and we gon'—

How lucky was I just to have you in my life
Before I ever played a show, before I ever held a mic (Ever held a mic)
You always taught me what it meant to be an artist
And that's why it's when I'm writin' this it's hitting me the hardest

I'm feeling so cold, I know you don't want me to cry
And I try sometimes, but I still ask why
This photograph is the only thing getting me through
(That's why I'm singing this for you)

Yeah, I remember you as a spring night on the south side of Boston
Every time I would step on the ledge, you were right there to stop me
And I'm missing you but I know that I'm right where I should be
And I made it now but I still wish that you could see

Yeah, I got your Irish eyes, and people say I'm looking like you all the time
So play this lullaby when you're feeling down and we gon' be alright
Yeah, I got your Irish eyes, and people say I'm looking like you all the time
So play this lullaby when you're feeling down and we gon'—

And I remember when I picked up the phone
My family told me everything, said I should probably come home (God damn)
I played the show in Salt Lake and flew to Logan
And it hit me all at once, it's been a minute since we spoken

I'm feeling so cold, I know you don't want me to cry
And I try sometimes, but I still ask why
This photograph is the only thing getting me through
(That's why I'm singing this for you)

Yeah, I remember you as a spring night on the south side of Boston
Every time I would step on the ledge, you were right there to stop me
And I'm missing you but I know that I'm right where I should be
And I made it now but I still wish that you could see

Yeah, I got your Irish eyes, and people say I'm looking like you all the time
So play this lullaby when you're feeling down and we gon' be alright
Yeah, I got your Irish eyes, and people say I'm looking like you all the time
So play this lullaby when you're feeling down and we gon' be alright
