Emerald Isle Lyrics - Whitehorse - Whitehorse

I wait on the Emerald Isle 

For you to come and rescue me 

From every step I can't make 

Feet don't you ever break 

Drag me over that line 

Halfway around the medicine ball 

Is far enough to blow me back 

Like you broke the bank on the ticket 

Worth every damn nickel 

Well, you got me that time 

"Cause I've been on the road one day too long 

Can't hear the record for another sad song 

Look at all these faces 

Can't all be wrong 

That's a lot of my heart out there 

Did you fly a million miles 

for every single one that I ran? 

I don't know which of us is crazy 

Oh, sweet baby 

That's the madness I desire 

And there's a twinkle in the Clifton sky 

Been there forever 

And lights the way for the runners 

The jackals and the lovers 

And the broken street lights 

I've been on the road one day too long 

Can't hear the record for another sad song 

Look at all these faces 

Can't all be wrong 

That's a lot of my heart out there 

So, do we keep runnin' through the motions, baby? 

Knowin' that one day's gonna come maybe 

When you can't keep your pretty mouth from sayin' 

I wanna go home 

I wait on the Emerald Isle 

For you to come and rescue me
