Irish Angel Lyrics - Jonny Lang

In the fall of the year 

She flew across the ocean 

To ireland, the land of her fathers 

When we said goodbye, 

A tear was in her eye 

I lost her then and there 

My irish angel 

The first letter came 

She said she loved it there 

And how much she wished 

I was there with her 

She wrote it on a hill 

In the gentle irish rain 

I saw her in my mind 

My irish angel

I wrote her back and then 

There was no second letter 

Just the silence of the snow 

That fell around me 

I let her down I know 

The day I let her go 

Now she's found someone else 

My irish angel 

The first time I saw her 

My heart went in a spin 

When they speak of love 

They call it falling 

It was like I held my breath 

'til I laid eyes on her agian 

So beatiful she was 

My irish angel 

Photos 

And when a stolen glance 

Led to a stolen kiss 

I thought I knew the 

Chance that I was taking 

I know I never knew 

A love as strong as this 

Or what it was to feel 

My own heart breaking 

So now I raise a glass 

And then I'll raise another 

One to forget 

One to remember 

And one just to dream 

Of how things could have been 

If I hadn't lost my irish angel
