I thought it was funny when you missed the train

When I rang you at home they said you left yesterday

I thought it was strange when your car was found

By the tree in ennis where we used to hang around

Dear isobel

I hope you're well and what you've done is right

Oh it's been such hell

I wish you well and hope you're safe tonight.

It's been a long day coming and long will it last

When it's last day leaving, and I'm helping it pass

By loving you more.

And who he would become, all the things he'd have done

Would he have loved you, and not let you down

And would he be stronger than his father

Don't punish yourself, leave it well alone.

Dear isobel

I hope you're well and what you've done is right

It's been a long day coming and long will it last

When it's last day leaving, and I'm helping it pass

By loving you more.
