The three of us walked on down In the sun that shone on a winter's day Down the hill and around the bend Past the houses of my childhood friends
And I won't let you go So here's to you Aileen Kane
And I'll never say goodbye Before you die But I carry you every day And I'll never say goodbye Before you die And I won't let you fade away Nothing's felt quite right since then But now one of us has given up or given in And we took a big jet plane across the world To Ireland, your resting place
And I won't let you go So here's to you Aileen Kane
And I'll never say goodbye Before you die But I carry you every day And I'll never say goodbye Before you die And I won't let you fade away
You mean more to me than anyone Anyone, I'm talking 'bout you You mean more to me than anyone
And I'll never say goodbye Before you die But I carry you every day And I'll never say goodbye Before you die And I won't let you fade away And I won't let you fade away
