We said we'd have just one or two, Around about half past eight, Then somebody bought another round, And somebody else stayed late. The fiddler played till his fingers bled, Tommy danced upon a chair, And somewhere around three in the morning, Nobody had a care. [Chorus] We'll sing till morning comes, Till the sun breaks through the grey, With a pounding head and shaky legs, We'll laugh it all away. We'll sing till morning comes, With our last few pints held high, And curse ourselves tomorrow, But tonight we'll touch the sky. [Verse 2] Mary stole the landlord's hat, And wore it like a queen, Somebody lost a shoe outside, Nobody knows what that means. The streets were empty, cold and wet, The birds began to sing, And every drunk philosopher Thought he could solve everything. [Chorus] We'll sing till morning comes, Till the sun breaks through the grey, With a pounding head and shaky legs, We'll laugh it all away. We'll sing till morning comes, With our last few pints held high, And curse ourselves tomorrow, But tonight we'll touch the sky. [Bridge] Tomorrow brings the headache, The shame and the regret, The mystery of where our money went, And debts we haven't paid yet. But every scar's a story, And every song's a friend, And nights like these are worth it all, Again and again and again. [Fiddle & whistle solo] [Final Chorus] We'll sing till morning comes, Till the daylight floods the street, With coffee, pain and bad decisions, And barely moving feet. We'll sing till morning comes, For the fools that we have been, And if we had the chance again, We'd do the same damn thing! [Outro] The Pearl locked up behind us, The sky was turning gold, We staggered home together, A little wiser, A little older, And still not doing what we're told. So here's to one more sunrise, And one more tale to tell, We'll meet again next Friday night... At The Pearl.
