Alex O'Brien - Skate With Me (feat. Paul Whitfield)

Well I never thought it would happen
All my life I lived in peace
I never knew the stench of death
Or saw the horrors of disease
I never dreamt that I'd be hungry
I never thought I'd pray again
To skate in peace on the Canal
And for the bloody war to end

Skate with me this winter's night
Hold me in your arms so tight
Like before the bombs did fall
I can hear the angels call
Skate with me this winter's night

Well I never dreamt I'd hold a gun
Or pray that men fall to their grave
I never thought I'd be so far
From the land I fight to save
I never realized what you meant
When you whispered in my ear
That we should never be apart
We should never live in fear

Skate with me this winter's night
Hold me in your arms so tight
Like before the bombs did fall
I can hear the angels call
Skate with me this winter's night

Well I never thought that I would lie
With a bullet near my heart
I never dreamt that I would die
And write a song as I did my part
I can see your smiling eyes
I can feel your gentle hands
I hear the jets up in the sky
And I just can't understand

Skate with me this winter's night
Hold me in your arms so tight
Like before the bombs did fall
I can hear the angels call
Skate with me this winter's night
Hold me in your arms so tight
Like before the bombs did fall
I can hear the angels call
Skate with me this winter's night
Hold me in your arms so tight
Skate with me this winter's night
Hold me in your arms so tight
Skate with me this winter's night
