about

Written by frontman Ronan McQuillan (IMRO)
A bittersweet tale of missed opportunity and bad timing.

lyrics

I think it was a heated row that drove you into my arms
I held you like a restless child when all the world was calm
The rain that night was beating down I could taste the salt on the air
But for all the people on the street it was just you and me there

All we can do now is wait
All we can do now sustain

I think it was a springtime fair that brought you into my mind
For all the things that time forgot this one I could not leave behind
My body shocks, my heartbeat stops. But what else can I do?
You're not here and I'm not there, I just got to find you

All we can do Is wait
All we can do now sustain
You sustain me, you sustain me yeah

I think it was a summer day when I next saw your face
You seem to glide in a beautiful world with such a style and grace
If I didn't know I'd soon find out, it wasn't meant to be
Excuse me now while I catch my breath, Cause I just can't wait to see
