about

A song I wrote about the night I met my wife, The rest is history!

lyrics

It was fate that we met in that cheesy disco

I hadn’t even planned going out that night

I was so shy I couldn’t talk to a woman

until i’d had 4 or 5 pints

You were there in your Aslan T-shirt

And I saw the mischief in your eyes

Then we got twisted on whiskey and guinness

A drunken hilarious night


Dublin Girl you came out of nowhere

And hit me like a runaway truck

Dublin girl you were a most delightful

Accidental

Kiss and run


You were disappointed that I wasn't Scottish

When we met the very next day

You were stuck with a boring old local

And by the way you were 40 minutes late

There we were in your little white car

Hungover and awkward and shy

Then we went driving up round Glendalough

The first day of the first day of the rest of our lives

Dublin Girl you came out of nowhere

And hit me like a runaway truck

Dublin girl you were a most delightful

Accidental

Kiss and run


Now we fast forward 26 years

And i'm still not Sean Connery

I have so much more white in my beard

The ginger it is fading away

But your grey hair it really suits you

I swear you get prettier every day

I remember how

when your parents didn’t like me

You dug your heels in

You stood by me


Dublin Girl you came out of nowhere

And hit me like a runaway truck

Dublin girl you were a most delightful

Accidental

Kiss and run

Dublin Girl you came out of nowhere

And hit me like a runaway truck

Dublin girl you were a most delightful

Accidental

Kiss and run

Music has always been a passion for me, between singing in pub sessions in the 80s to now gigging and recording music as a profession. It's been a sometimes torturous journey, but music has always been my friend. Even when I was alone, I was never truly alone. It's food and medicine for your soul. ... more
