Oh, Mairead
Your love is beyond compare
You have streaks of ivory hair
Two lips I wouldn't dare -
Oh, Mairead
Sweet, sweet Mairead
Love of my life, Mairead
Oh, Mairead (x3)

It's your oasis
Stroke of the pen
It's your hive of friends, baby
Tell me, is this the end?
Oh, Mairead
Oh, sweet Mairead
Love of my life, Mairead
Oh, Mairead (x3)

You hide behind an icy stare
Do you even care?
Well I'm here, well I'm there
Oh, Mairead
You sucked my dry
Took all my will to live
Look at me, oh look at me, Mairead
Sweet Mairead
Sweet, sweet Mairead (x2)

Oh, Mairead
You took every - every ounce of my love
[Let me put there]
I think I've had enough
Oh, Mairead
You said it was true love
You said it was everything you ever wanted
You said - said lies
You said lies
Oh, Mairead
Take me for a fool
Oh, Mairead (x2)
Took everything and let me never forget
