what a beutiful performance. You made it!

After a long hiatus, the best-selling Irish pop-rock band is about to return with a new album called Roses. 
But if this performance at the NPR Music offices is any indication, 
the group isn't afraid to dip into its arsenal of early hits.

TRANSCRIPT / CONTEXT

Jeff Buckley on music and life

This is one I'm really excited about! I made this with Noobly, someone I'm inspired by, and have really enjoyed getting to know. "Far" is inspired by some of the lakes in upstate New York, and the feelings of nostalgia they create. Lyrics:

I stared out across the harbor 
My vision’s getting sharper 
I saw you on the horizon 
Don’t know where to find him
All this for nothing, getting cold 
Stories are ending, growing old 
They’re all but told 
This to hold, nothing to lose
Long ago, lost in the waves
Safe to say, your worst mistake

But at night I remember 
When we had it coming 
Another sun, another awning 
You and me in the
Backseat of your car
We never thought 
We’d take it that far
We wished on a star 
That’d it’d take us far, far...

I see a city across the ocean 
Don’t know why you’re broken 
I heard from them all 
That you’re not doing well 
The years haven’t been kind 
I didn’t think you would mind 
We fell out of time 
Did you lose your mind?
After all these years 
What are you trying to find? 
You made your bed 
All you have to do is lie in it

But at night I remember 
When we had it coming 
Another sun, another awning 
You and me in the
Backseat of your car
We never thought 
We’d take it that far
We wished on a star 
That’d it’d take us far, far...

Another sun, another awning
Another sun, another awning
Another sun, another awning
Another sun, another awning

I stared out across the harbor 
My vision’s getting sharper 
I saw you on the horizon 
Don’t know where to find him
All this for nothing, getting cold 
Stories are ending, growing old 
They’re all but told 
This to hold, nothing to lose
Long ago, lost in the waves
Safe to say, your worst mistake
