about

In 2019 and after a successful Kickstarter campaign, Owls & Lions released "There's A Light," their first EP collection of new songs. One of them was a clever ballad called Irish Goodbyes. Since then, they've enjoyed performing it for their audiences and it started to naturally evolve into an energetic more fast paced rowdy rock anthem, fit for a finale! In celebration of St. Patrick's Day 2023, here's the new Irish Goodbyes (Rock Mix) so "why don't you stay for a while" and give it a wee listen

lyrics

IRISH GOODBYES

VERSE
Ok fine I said hi
But I did not say goodbye
What do you want?
That’s my style

Don’t be sad
I’ll be mad
I get drunk so quick it’s bad
I’m flattered you missed me
But thanks for the whisky

CHORUS
They call them Irish Goodbyes
There’s no taking time
No standing in line
We just head for the back and we fly
When they realize
It’s late in the night
Their asking oh why did he leave
What do you want?
That’s my style
Why don’t you stay for a while?

VERSE
There’s nothing so sexy
As a man who disappears
After eating his fill
And drinking lots of beer
He shows up like the wind
In the middle of the night
Everyone’s happy
When he does not start a fight

CHORUS
They call them Irish Goodbyes
There’s no taking time
No standing in line
We just head for the back and we fly
When they realize
It’s late in the night
Their asking oh why did he leave
What do you want?
That’s my style
Why don’t you stay for a while?

VERSE
What goes through your mind
When you leave with no goodbye
So many random people
That I don’t even like
There’s Tommy
There’s Taryn
I’ll wink and I’ll give a nudge
They’re dear friends of mine since youth
They will not hold a grudge

CHORUS
They call them Irish Goodbyes
There’s no taking time
No standing in line
We just head for the back and we fly
When they realize
It’s late in the night
Their asking oh why did he leave
What do you want?
That’s my style
Why don’t you stay for a while?
Irish Goodbyes
Why don’t you stay for a while?
Irish Goodbyes
Why don’t you stay for a while ?
