Belle of Belfast

Verse 1
By the fire in an old stone pub tonight,
Where the fiddle weeps and the stout runs free,
There’s a spark in the room, there’s a light in my chest,
Every time she’s standing next to me.
From the cobbled streets to the neon glow,
She walks like a song through the crowd,
And every old soul in this place knows her name
When the laughter gets a little too loud.

Chorus
She’s a pretty Irish angel,
With the stars in her eyes held fast,
Raise your glass and sing it louder —
To the Belle of Belfast.
Oh she’s a pretty Irish angel,
By the saints and the sins of the past,
In this old Irish pub tonight,
All hearts beat for the Belle of Belfast.

Verse 2
We’ve danced through the rain on a Saturday night,
Boots worn thin on the pub floor wood,
Shared one last pint and a thousand dreams,
Like only true lovers could.
When the world turns rough and the road turns long,
And the dawn comes cold and pale,
She’s the warmth in my hands, the strength in my song,
More precious than silver or ale.

Chorus
She’s a pretty Irish angel,
With a smile that time can’t outlast,
Lift your voice and swear it true —
To the Belle of Belfast.
Oh she’s a pretty Irish angel,
Every promise, every past,
In the noise and the joy of a roaring crowd,
We sing love for the Belle of Belfast.

Bridge
Let the bodhrán roll and the fiddle fly,
Let the floorboards shake tonight,
If love’s a curse, then curse me proud,
‘Cause I’ll wear it till the morning light.

Verse 3
When the lamps burn low and the doors swing shut,
And the streets lie quiet and still,
I’d cross every sea and every stone road
Just to find her standing on the hill.
For gold may fade and songs may end,
But some truths are built to last —
Like love raised high in a crowded room
For the Belle of Belfast.

Final Chorus (Big Pub Sing-Along)
She’s a pretty Irish angel,
Sing it slow, then sing it fast,
Stomp your feet and raise your glass
To the Belle of Belfast.
Oh she’s a pretty Irish angel,
Let the whole world hear it cast,
In this life and the next, I’m forever hers —
And she’s my Belle of Belfast.
