The Prodigals Baggot Street Lyrics

When I told her that I loved her
She said I must be mad
But still and all when she'd recall
All the times we had
With the way that things were going
She might just take a chance
And in the word I thought I heard
An echo of romance

Did the echo quickly fade
Or do you recall as well
We used to meet on Baggot Street
Beside the old hotel
The 16A would pull away
And leave that diesel smell
And you'd be standing there
By that Baggot Street hotel

It didn't last that long
And I never thought it would
When I'm looking back now
I don't see how it could
It's just pictures in my head
Graffiti on a wall
Some are washed away with rain
'til they're hardly there at all

And then that day we made our way
Down by the Liffeyside
In a bar twe had a jar
And watched the rain outside
We said whatever happened
We'd always be good friends
In a cigarette and friendship
That's the way the whole world ends

Did the echo quickly fade
Or do you recall as well
We used to meet on Baggot Street
Beside the old hotel
The 16A would pull away
And leave that diesel smell
And you'd be standing there
By that Baggot Street hotel

We finished up our pints
And we paid the barman's bill
Walked back up the Liffet
In the silence and the chill
At O'Connell Bridge we went our ways
We said we'd be in touch
I supposed you said goodbye
I don't think I said much

But on that day I heard you say
That the world was wide and I
Would find someone far better
And I didn't need to try
But still at times when I lie down
I'll dream and start to dance
With the long-gone ghost of Baggot Street
And an echo of romance

Did the echo quickly fade
Or do you recall as well
We used to meet on Baggot Street
Beside the old hotel
The 16A would pull away
And leave that diesel smell
And you'd be standing there
By that Baggot Street hotel

And did the echo quickly fade
Or do you recall as well
We used to meet on Baggot Street
Beside the old hotel
The 16A would pull away
And leave that diesel smell
And you'd be standing there
By that Baggot Street hotel
