The Mountain Goats
Red Choral Diamond Spray
[Verse 1]
As we pull into the harbor in New York today
I ask you how you're doing, you swear up and down you're okay
But I can see what's gotten into your eyes
It's written all over your face tonight
[Chorus]
We will never see Ireland again
We will never see Ireland again
[Verse 2]
As we hang up the map on the motel wall
Count up the places that we've left behind, add the distances between them all
All the bridges that someone's burned down for us
All the chances that we burned all by ourselves
[Pre-Chorus]
Makes us wonder what we were thinking then
'Cause we will never see Ireland again
[Chorus]
We will never see Ireland again
We will never see Ireland again
