Before The Worst

It's been a while since the two of us talked

About a week since the day that you walked

Knowing things would never be the same

With your empty heart and mine full of pain

So explain to me, how it came to this

Take it back to the night we kissed

It was Dublin City on a Friday night

You were vodkas and Coke, I was Guinness all night

We were sitting with our backs against the world

Saying things that we thought would never hurt

Oh, who would have thought it would end up like this?

When everything we talked about is gone

And the only chance we have of moving on

Is trying to take it back

Before it all went wrong

Before the worst, before we mend

Before our hearts decide

It's time to love again

Before too late, before too long

Let's try to take it back

Before it all went wrong

There was a time that we'd stay up all night

Best friends, yeah, talking till the daylight

Took the joys alongside the pain

With not much to lose, but so much to gain

Are you hearing me? 'Cause I don't wanna miss

Set you a drift on memory bliss

It was Grafton Street on a rainy night

I was down on one knee and you were mine for life

We we're thinking we would never be apart

With your name tattooed across my heart

Who would have thought it would end up like this?

When everything we talked about is gone

And the only chance we have of moving on

Is trying to take it back

Before it all went wrong

Before the worst, before we mend

Before our hearts decide

It's time to love again

Before too late, before too long

Let's try to take it back

Before it all went wrong

If the clouds don't clear

Then we'll rise above it, we'll rise above it, oh, yeah

Heaven's gate is so near

Come walk with me through

Just like we use to, just like we use to

Yeah, yeah

Let's take it back

Before it all went wrong

Before the worst, before we mend

Before our hearts decide

It's time to love again

Before too late, before too long

Let's try to take it back

Before it all went wrong
