And so your love sits down next to you
And her body is cold and her lips are blue
And this is our feeling
That she was always warm to you
She the one, you're always singing to

Oh, wash away, wash away
The sound of all these sad days
The sound of the wind blowing
And say we'll be here always
And this is all I'm hopin' for
When she left, she didn't close the door

And you're a fool to wait for your lucky break
Ah, all that talkin' right
Without your hands on life and now
Oh yeah, they say he's high

But it's time to move now, come on
And wash away, wash away
The sound of all these sad days
The sound of not knowing
Say we'll be here always
And this is all I'm hopin' for
When she left ,she didn't close the door

Oh, and sister you were never this before
Oh, your eyes are red and your hands are so sore
And you and me once washed away the pain
But now we're so long distance in so many call ways

Wash away, wash away
The sound of all these sad days
The sound of the wind blowing
And say you'll be here always
And this is all I'm hopin' for
But it's what I'm waiting for

And on any day like today I can say
I wanna be in Galway, I wanna be in '97
I wanna wash away
All these things crowd at my door
And I wanna be in the river
I wanna be in the sea

Wash away, wash away
The sound of all these sad days
The sound of the wind blowing
And say we'll be here

Wash away, wash away
The sound of all these sad days
The sound of the wind blowing
And say we'll be here

Wash away, wash away
The sound of all these sad days
The sound of the wind blowing
And say we'll be here always

Wash away, wash away
The sound of all these sad days
The sound of the wind blowing
And say we'll be here always
