Bluebell Gate
I wanted you to ask
As we sat there in the dark on Bluebell Gate
It’s funny no one passed
As we sat there in your car on Bluebell Gate
I thought you were in love
I thought you were in love on Bluebell Gate
But you were in love with me
But didn’t let me know
When your father came tap tapping on the glass
My hands were on the wheel
And I wonder where his motorbike took Maria
Far from her parents’ house
Each verse that we spoke
I remember like I’m standing on Bluebell Gate
Through mirrors and through smoke
Take a picture of a life on Bluebell Gate
Now sometimes I pass
And sit in my car on Bluebell Gate
It always makes me laugh
That night you kissed my lips on Bluebell Gate
And the parish priest blessed their holy union
The chiazza heard the bells
And in that chapel white we made that same promise
That I wished for on that night
I never will forget
How you saved my life on Bluebell Gate
It’s like I won a bet
And we have split the pot on Bluebell Gate
