Your presence struck me deep inside,
Your smile, your skin, you left a mark.
It was clear that I was lost,
Knocked out cold by fate’s own hand.
You had charmed me with your spark,
With your ways, your life unplanned.
Bridge
It was clear I was enslaved
By your sweet temptation.
Woman,
I let go, no hesitation,
Falling right down at your feet.
Chorus
A thousand songs would not be enough
To make you stay, to hold you close.
Your soul beside mine, tell me how,
Tell me what I need to do.
All I know is when you’re near,
When I see you once again,
I will sing a thousand songs,
For a thousand nights of flame.
Verse 2
The only hope I’m holding on
Is that in February, you return,
With the wish to stay once more,
On this island where we burned.
So in that Irish bar again,
I can sing to you once more,
A thousand songs of memories,
That will lift your soul once more.
Chorus
A thousand songs would not be enough
To make you stay, to hold you close.
Your soul beside mine, tell me how,
Tell me what I need to do.
All I know is when you’re near,
When I see you once again,
I will sing a thousand songs,
For a thousand nights
