Verse 1
I woke up and went to dublin
my first day was on a sunday
so nervous couldn’t focus
but I knew what I had to do

Pre Chorus
so I set up my things and there you were
with your sunglasses and a white t-shirt
you asked me to sing “can’t help falling in love”
oh if I knew what were to come

Chorus
but back to the story, it felt like a big fantasy
singing and flirting we fit like a good poetry
oh oh oh
I recall it all like a melody

Verse 2
and so it goes every week day
we were on the phone til 4am
you’d tell me your secrets
trusted me with the little things

Pre Chorus
and we could’t wait for saturday
cause we knew we’d see each other again
and while my mind was on my heart
my dreams were falling apart

Chorus
but back to the story, we were only two teens
tool me to places i’ve never seen
we drank coffee at Stephen’s green
oh oh oh
I recall it all

Chorus
and suddenly the planets collided
jupiter took me out of your mind
so you called me up and said
that the time wasn’t right
and suddenly I turned to the side
you found the one for all times
the one who makes you cry
but the love of your life

Verse 3
and I hope she makes you happier (if I ever did)
cause even though you left me
you still mean everything to me
I recall it all

Chorus
but back to the story, I’m glad you found your happy end
and I found myself again
and no I don’t wanna be friends

Outro
I recall it all
like a melody
