Ryan O'Reilly - I Never Told Her

Текст песни

Before the war
This was a church
Before the war
Came in through the roof
They left the rubble
For all the tourist
They fenced it all off
Because of insurance
I sat at the back
With your invitation
And witnessed the vows
To your secular wedding
And thought how
I never told her
How close we were
For hope not to lose her
But I lost you both
Before our parents were born
This church had a steeple
And it held all the secrets
Of all those dead people
A few years ago
I said your name every day
Before we decided
To throw our friendship away
But still, I never told her
How close we were
I never told her
I never told her
How close we were
For hope not to lose her
But I lost you both
And as you stand alone
In your wedding dress
It wouldn’t matter now
If I was to confess
Oh we were younger then
And no one ever knew
What you meant to me
And what I meant to you
I stared at the names
On your invitation
Stood up slowly
In your standing ovation
The sun shone through the glass
That used to be stained
I followed you out
But the ruins remained
