Kensington Place

On a late night out of London
I left England behind
Heading west to Mother Ireland
Through the night
Heading home to all the memories
I once left behind
All the memories of a starlit Irish night...
She was delicate and fragile
She was wild and untamed
Like a wave rolling home across the sea
And she took me like a rainstorm
Down and down again
Like a rainstorm then gone again from me...
Raise your glass a little higher
Tell the band I'm here to stay
Till some lover puts a smile back on my face
Wash my soul in Irish whiskey
One more passion play
And say goodbye
To the rose of Kensington Place...
Now the night is falling heavy
Across the cliffs of Mohr
And I'm dreaming about things and how they were
And of all the Irish angels
I have known before
There was no one and no love quite like her...
Raise your glass a little higher
Tell the band I'm here to stay
Till some lover puts a smile back on my face
Wash my soul in Irish whiskey
One more passion play
And say goodbye
To the rose of Kensington Place...
And say goodbye
To the rose of Kensington Place...
