Oh, winter for sure 

Winter - the snow, winter moves on)

The last night on Maudlin Street 

Goodbye house - goodbye stairs 

I was born here, I was raised here and 

I took some stick here 

Love at first sight may sound trite 

But it's true, you know 

I could list the details 

Of everything you ever wore 

Or said, or how you stood that day 

As we spend the last night on Maudlin Street 

"Goodbye house, forever!" 

I never stole a happy hour around here 

Where the world's ugliest boy 

He became what you see 

Here I am - the ugliest man 

Oh the last night on Maudlin Street 

Truly I do love you 

Oh, truly I do love you 

When I sleep with that picture of 

You framed beside my bed 

Oh, it's childish and it's silly 

But I think it's you in my room 

By the bed (...yes, I told you it was silly...) 

And I know I took strange pills 

But I never meant to hurt you 

Oh, truly I love you 

Came home late one night 

Everyone had gone to bed 

But you know, no one stays up for you 

I had sixteen stitches all around my head 

The last bus I missed to Maudlin Street 

So, he drove me home in the van 

complaining: "Women only like me for my mind." 

Don't leave your torch behind, a power-cut ahead 1972, you know 

And so we crept through the park 

No, I cannot steal a pair of jeans off a clothesline for you 

But you without clothes 

Oh I could not keep a straight face 

Me - without clothes? 

Well, a nation turns its back and gags. 

and I'm packed 

I am moving house 

A half-life disappears today 

With every hag waves me on 

Secretly wishing me gone 

Well, I will be soon 

Oh - I will be soon, I will be soon. 

There were bad times on Maudlin Street 

They took you away in a police car 

Dear Inspector - don't you know? 

Don't you care? Don't you know about Love? 

Your gran died and your mother died 

On Maudlin Street 

In pain and ashamed 

With never time to say 

Those special things 

I took the keys from Maudlin Street 

Well, it's only bricks and mortar! 

Oh. truly I love you 

Wherever you are 

Wherever you are 

Wherever you are 

I hope you're singing now 

Oh I do, I hope you're singing now
