Love in the Sunshine

What Your Drinking Did to Me

(Verse 1) 
I patched the walls you punched at three 
Smiled through stories I couldn’t conceive 
Kept your secrets like they were mine
But silence doesn’t matter most of the time

(Chorus) 
You didn’t see what your drinking did to me 
How I bent till I broke just to keep the peace 
It wasn’t just your life that took the hit 
I wore bruises in places you’d never admit 
You didn’t see, you wouldn’t see 
What your drinking did to me

(Verse 2) 
I learned to read the slur behind your grin 
Dodged your moods that spilled like gin 
You slept it off while I stayed wide awake 
Counting every piece I couldn’t remake

(Chorus) 
You didn’t see what your drinking did to me 
How I bent till I broke just to keep the peace 
It wasn’t just your life that took the hit 
I wore bruises in places you’d never admit 
You didn’t see, you wouldn’t see 
What your drinking did to me

(Bridge) 
I lost myself in your haze and spin 
But I won’t drown just to pull you in 
Love shouldn’t come with a closing time 
I won’t be the casualty of your decline

(Chorus) 
You didn’t see what your drinking did to me 
How I bent till I broke just to keep the peace 
It wasn’t just your life that took the hit 
I wore bruises in places you’d never admit 
You didn’t see, you wouldn’t see 
What your drinking did to me

What Your Drinking Did to Me

A Picture of You

Penny Arcade

Gold & Silver Days

Galway Girl

Niamh has had the best first year she could have hoped for – releasing her debut album, 'An Old Fashioned Song', to much success on Radio, having five consecutive Number 1 Singles on iTunes, debuting her duet single with Johnny Brady on The Late Late Show and being compared to Imelda May by host Ryan Tubridy, winning two Newcomer Awards from Hot Country and The Leinster Entertainment Awards and now being nominated NEWCOMER OF THE YEAR at the RTE Irish Country Music Awards – this certainly has been a great first year!
The modest Dublin mother-of-two attributes a lot of her success to ‘The Dresses and The Shoes’!!! Niamh has a natural draw to the Country Look and Sounds that came out of Nashville in the 1960 era. Her retro fashion (and vocal) style is similar to that from the early days when female country singers left their permanent mark on the Country Music scener – ladies like Patsy Cline, Tammy Wynette, Loretta Lynn etc. and it is these powerful women that influence Niamh most!
Niamh said: “I was on the Late Late Show a while back and Ryan Tubridy introduced me as ‘The Imelda May of Country’ because of the dresses that I wear - I’ll take that’!!!
