about

An Irish folk inspired song about unrequited love and self delusion.

lyrics

Mine is a tale of a love that failed
A ship in the night that had to sail
And mine was doomed right from the start
Well she had it all
So surely I was bound fall
From the moment Cupid shot his dart

She was fine as wine
She was my sunshine

A loser's lament
A heartache I thought permanent
I remember all the nights I wept
When she let me down
Not gently, this woman she went to town
And left me feeling so inept

O she was fine as wine
She was my sunshine

The folly of forbidden fruit
She gave me a holy parachute
And the kiss of death before I leapt
Did I dare her to shoot?
To kill a man with the truth
Or was it just Karma's Revenge?

'Though she tried to teach me
But she couldn't reach me
I don't believe her
Her eyes they deceive her
I know that she wants me
In the way that she taunts me
O I don't believe her
Her eyes they deceive her
